This Fountain was Originally located on East Main Street at Franklin Hall. Given to the community by the Women's Club in 1907 it's tri-level design accommodated Humans, Horses and Dogs

 

Union Church

Originally built in 1860 the building acted as a municipal meeting house, a high school and firehouse.

 

The station has undergone many changes in its long history. Originally built as a three story structure the third floor was removed in 1907 leaving the basic structure you see today.

Around 1958  the three door configuration was altered to one door to better serve the type of apparatus the company was using.

 

The last major change was in the 1960's. The company changed the front facade and added kitchen and utility room on the first floor.

 

Today we house three pieces of apparatus in the engine bays. A fully equipped bunk room allows for a live in program which could be of use to students at one of the many surrounding institutes of higher learning.

 

The facility is also used by other community organizations for training and meetings

 

Visitors are always welcome please, stop in.
