Good historical experience with an emphasis on the events from the British point of view. Well done.

A great historical house that shows the British side of the Revolutionary War. The tour guide, dressed most accurate for the time period, was very interesting and informative. Most of the furniture in the house is original! There is also a lovely historical garden.

This is a great piece of history. As the British occupied it as a temporary headquarters and field hospital on their return to Boston, the historical society sets the “theme” from a British perspective which is kind of cool. As a Munroe descendant, it was also great to see some family history.
