Free Open House at the Arnold House in Lincoln
June 1 @ 11:00 am - 4:00 pm
On Saturday, June 1, Historic New England will hold a free open house at the Arnold House, 487 Great Road, in Lincoln from 11 am to 4 pm.
In 1693, Eleazer Arnold, a major landowner, built his house along Great Road, one of the earliest roads in the colonies. Two stories high, the home so dominated the modest dwellings of nearby farmers that it earned the title “Eleazer’s Splendid Mansion.” With its massive chimney end wall, the house is a rare survivor of a once-common Rhode Island building type known as a stone-ender.
