Sudbury Center Historic District is a historic district on Concord and Old Sudbury Roads in Sudbury, Massachusetts. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1] In 1976, it included 80 buildings over 193.6 acres (0.783 km2).[2]
According to a Town of Sudbury website, "Of historical significance in this District is the Loring Parsonage, c. 1700, the First Parish Meetinghouse, built in 1797, site of Sudbury’s second Meetinghouse and first Town Meeting, the 19th century Presbyterian Church, and the Grange Hall, erected in 1846. The Hosmer House, standing at the corner of Concord and Old Sudbury Roads is a typical residence of the early 19th century. Here, also, is the Common where the Militia and Minutemen mustered on the morning of April 19, 1775, and just beyond the old Town Hall is the Revolutionary Cemetery and Monument. To the east of the Centre is the Haynes Garrison site where the people of Sudbury defended their lives and frontier settlements against the allied Indian forces of Philip of Pokonoket."[3]
It includes representations of Mid 19th Century Revival, Late 19th and 20th Century Revivals, and Federal architecture styles.[1]
