The main house on this property is one of the oldest buildings in Westwood and said to have been originally built in the 1720's. In the past 300 years, the property had been used as a Lodging Inn for those transporting livestock while traveling to Boston from Connecticut. The herders used the old dirt highway that was High Street and if they or their animals needed rest and refreshment would detour onto Pond Street. The livestock would feed and drink at the pond and the herders would spend the night at this property before treading over to Boston the next day. The property was also said to have been used as a Underground Railroad home and still includes the escape hatch into the old root cellar.
