Before restoration

Restoration of the exterior of the North Groton Historic House was finished in fall 2002. Under the direction of Museum staff and special consultants, clapboards and trim were replaced with historically accurate material and finished with an opaque stain appropriate to the period. In addition, masonry was repaired, the roof replaced with new cedar shingles and the side porch rebuilt. Investigation during the process revealed an original window that had been tucked away -- still wearing its original
paint color.
