Inventory of Historical Assets

"Each historical commission is expected to compile and maintain the inventory of the community's historic assets. The inventory must be comprehensive for all types and periods of resources. It must be representative of all areas, buildings, structures, and sites that are historically, architecturally, archaeologically, or culturally significant to the city or town. At a minimum, the inventory must contain information locating the property, documenting its historical, architectural, and/or archaeological significance within the overall context of the community's development, and depicting it through photographs." PRESERVATION PLANNING MANUAL Local Historical Commissions: Their Role in Local Government, Massachusetts Historical Commission, 1992. Page 18.

The Brimfield Historical Commission undertook such an inventory in the mid 1990's. A street index of the surveyed properties can be found at the following links:
  • Agard Street - Hollow Road
  • John Haley Road - Prospect Hill Road
  • St. Clair Road - Washington Road
