Town Of Bridgewater Captain's House Makeover

The Captain’s House, also known as the Burnham Cottage, is getting a makeover. This work is required by the State Historic Preservation Office as “mitigation” for the loss of the Grange structure. People will note in the attached photos that the old building which had already been repaired and moved twice in the past is in bad condition. We will be re-using some of salvageable wood and other old wood to exactly reconstruct the Captain’s House very close to its current location. Both Alan Michener and John Galligan are working on this project which should be finished this Fall. The Bridgewater Historical Society will return the stored historic artifacts and manage the mini museum as part of their offerings to the public.
