A New Home for an Old Meetinghouse
We have reconstructed the old North Dartmouth Quaker Meeting House that dates back to the mid 1800's. A fine example of early Friend's architecture, this building was disassembled at its original site, carefully packed on a flat-bed and in a trailer, moved to Woolman Hill, and has been re-assembled. It is exciting to know that this fine meeting house is living again, as part of a vital Woolman Hill.
