Thirty-One-Mile Stone
Bring a little Bolton home.
Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches
Between opening a book and making a few notes, a small display can give the eye somewhere else to go. Bolton's Thirty-One-Mile Stone gives the picture a broad roadside marker, with distance to Boston carried by one modest local landmark.
Bolton's Thirty-One-Mile Stone marks the road distance to Boston. Frank O. Branzetti photographed the broad stone for the Historic American Buildings Survey on April 3, 1941. The record preserves a roadside landmark and a measure of connection between a valley town and the city.
The stone connects Bolton with the road to the city, a particular way to keep the town's place within a larger regional journey in view. Keep the plaque on the desk where its picture can be noticed between a page of work and the next task.
