Another week, another photo to highlight.
This week’s photo features one of Burlington’s historical buildings in need of a facelift. It was sent in by BNEWS anchor Phil Gallagher and shows the West School on Bedford Street. The one-room schoolhouse was built in 1794–5, when the area was still part of Woburn. The building was originally located in what is now Simonds Park in the center of Burlington, but was moved to its present location in 1839 to serve as the school for the western part of town.
Thanks for the photo, Phil!
We’d like to see your photos. They could be of your winter activities, a family trip or just everyday moments. Whatever you think is interesting and want to share. Email your photos to bcat@bcattv.org with the subject line “Photo of the Week.”
