A SKETCHBOOK ODYSSEY

The Soldier’s Memorial Library is a historic library building on the town green at the junction of Park Row and Union Street in Mansfield, Massachusetts/ The 2-1/2 story Gothic Revival structure was designed by the noted Architectural  firm of Peabody and Stearns, and built in 1899-1901. The building and land were primarily a gift from Elizabeth F. Noble. It was designed to house the public library on the ground floor, and provide a memorial to the town’s American Civil War soldiers on the upper floor. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. The building currently houses the  school administrative offices and is connected to the Town Hall.
