Forge Village Historic District
Forge Village Historic District, Historic district in Westford, Massachusetts, United States.
The Forge Village Historic District extends across 250 acres, featuring Colonial and Federal architecture around the intersection of East and West Prescott Streets with Pleasant Street.
The district grew from a small blacksmith operation into a substantial manufacturing center when the Abbot Worsted Company established its mill complex in 1854.
The neighborhood preserves worker housing, industrial buildings, and community spaces that represent the social structure of a 19th-century New England mill village.
