Recently, work has begun to restore the gatehouse at North Burial Ground in Fall River, MA. The restoration is to include the cleaning and repointing of the historic masonry, salvaging and repairing the wood trim, doors, and windows, and restoring the wrought iron entry gate.

Restoration work at Fall River’s historic North Burial Ground Gatehouse continues. The new brownstone colonettes have arrived on site. The colonettes are custom-made out of Portland Browstone and hand carved to match the original colonettes found elsewhere on the gatehouse!
