West School. 1797 Littleton, Massachusetts West School, Recently discovered, this pyramidal roofed building measures 24' x 24' with ceiling height of nine feet. The building was identified through a search of the town records, local history and by dendrochronology. In 1867, replaced by a new school, it was moved and attached to a small cape. This rare 18th century public building has been dismantled in order to insure its preservation. The hewn frame, sheathing and flooring are in storage. (scroll down for drawing)
