Freegrace Marble Farm Historic District

The Freegrace Marble Farm Historic District encompasses a historic farmstead at 80 Burbank Road in Sutton, Massachusetts. Although most of its buildings date to the 19th century, the farm has retained the form of a typical 18th-century farm, including a substantial portion of the land granted in 1717 to Freegrace Marble, one of Sutton's earliest colonial settlers. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
The Freegrace Marble Farm is located in a rural area of northern Sutton, its complex of buildings located at the junction of Burbank and Sibley Roads. The farm covers about 63 acres , which is divided roughly equally between open land , and woodlands. Stone walls line many elements of the property, with particularly well-formed ones lining the road near the farmstead. A family cemetery is located near the northern edge of the property; although its oldest readable marker is dated 1786, it is known to include the grave of the farm's founder Freegrace Marble, who died in 1775. The farm complex consists of a 1-1/2 story Cape style plank-framed house, set on the south side of the street junction. Across the street to the north stands a cluster of two barns and a toolshed.
