Mann Farmhouse/Historical Museum

The Mann Farmhouse is a typical full Cape with a large central chimney. The ell was added and served as a summer kitchen, storage area and workshop. The artifacts of the Mann family on display in the Mann Farmhouse date from the seventeenth century to the present time. They include primitive Pilgrim furniture, carpenter and shoe making tools, military items, china, children's toys, early farming equipment and many valuable documents and books. Five generations of the Mann family lived in this house. They were direct descendants of Richard Mann, who came to Scituate in 1636. It is from him that Mann Hill derived its name. On the grounds, and to the rear, of the Mann House there is a magnificent wild flower garden.
