Attleborough Falls Historic District

The district extends across 42 acres along Mount Hope and Towne Streets, featuring residential buildings that showcase diverse architectural styles from different periods.

During the 1850s, the establishment of jewelry factories on the Ten Mile River's north side prompted the development of residential areas for workers and factory owners.

The neighborhood represents the evolution of American residential architecture through Federal, Greek Revival, Italianate, and Queen Anne style houses built between 1790 and 1890.

The district's triangular layout, bordered by Ten Mile River, Mount Hope Street, and Towne Street, allows visitors to explore the historical architecture through walking routes.

The Freeman House at 370 Mount Hope Street stands as an exemplary Queen Anne residence constructed by local jewelry factory owner B.S. Freeman in 1890.
