Description
Another addition to the Old or Abandoned Series. With the establishment of water power and the building of the railroad in 1847, the Graniteville district of Westford, MA came alive with industry. Following the industrial revolution Mr. Sargent moved to Westford from Lowell and established several businesses including this Machine shop and quarry mill in 1877. C.G. Sargent's and Sons Company stood the test of time until 1990 when the company declared bankruptcy. To this day Graniteville as it was aptly named is still involved in the granite quarrying business to this day!
