TRAILS & SAILS: MUSEUM OPEN HOUSES

Explore The Parson Barnard House, a parsonage built in 1715 and kept as a museum by the North Andover Historical Society. Each room is appointed to show the change in wealth, style, and taste of the house's inhabitants over time. Built by Rev. Thomas Barnard, a critic of the Witch Trials. William Symmes Jr, cast the pivotal vote in the ratification of the U.S. Constitution and called this stately saltbox home. As did Simeon Putnam, headmaster of the county’s first co-ed schoolhouse. A docent will be present to guide your visit.



Johnson Cottage – Explore Johnson Cottage, a classic cottage built in the 1790s and kept as a museum by the North Andover Historical Society. See what life was like in postrevolutionary Andover for a humble carpenter’s family of five. Appointed to appear lived-in and full of environmental story telling. A docent will be present to answer questions. Learn More.
