Heritage Trail

 

Cohasset Academy building, now moved to 29 Beach Street.

 
 

Cohasset’s Heritage Trail was established in 1970 by the Cohasset Bicentennial Committee with the houses numbered 1 - 94, alphabetically by street name. In 2020, the Cohasset 250th Anniversary Committee expanded the Trail to include 250 of the town’s earliest homes and structures still standing.

More information about these historic buildings can be found in our book The First 250: Cohasset’s Earliest Houses & Places, available here.
