Title:

Hartford Grammar School

Date:: 1906?
Description:: On back of photograph, "Hartford Grammar School". This photograph shows a group of masons posing in front of the partially completed grammar school. In the foreground, debris and tools litter the dirt road in front of the workers, while piles of lumber, barrels, and lumber fill the picture to their right. The workers are dressed in work clothes and are holding the tools of their trade. Behind the workers is the grammar school partially constructed from brick and granite, supported with wood cribbing and braces. To the left of the school can be seen two wood framed structures, a wooden fence, and a dirt road. To the right of the school can be seen various wooden framed dwellings, and perhaps an outbuilding. Behind the grammar school is an open field and rolling hills that are partially forested with fruit bearing trees. Season summer. Looks like an out house in the right rear. This is a panoramic photograph. Esther Munroe Swift writes on 2005-5-27: This photo will have been taken in 1906 after the townspeople had voted to build a new Grammar School. The original wood framed building was moved to make room for the new one and was used until it was completed. In recent years several very compatible additions have been made to the building.
