The Hatch Mill is one of a few remaining examples of an intact water-powered industrial property in Massachusetts
It is on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Hatch Homestead and Mill Historic District, which includes the famed Red House*. In 2004 it was on the verge of collapse when it was saved by a dedicated group of Marshfield residents.
Please see our updated (2023) History and Preservation pages.
Our mission is to open the mill as a museum featuring the working water-powered sawmill, box mill and other mechanical infrastructure
The mill welcomes visitors on pre-scheduled tours and during open houses. Would you like a tour? Email us!
*The story of the Red House is chronicled in a book by Sarah Messer titled, “The Red House: Being a Mostly Accurate Account of New England’s Oldest Continuously Lived-in House.” It is still owned and lived in today by the Messer Family.
