Cultural Landscape Report for the Wayside Unit, Minute Man National Historical Park, Concord, MA: Site History, Existing Conditions, Analysis and Treatment
The purpose of this cultural landscape report (CLR) is to document the physical history of the Wayside Unit, with particular attention to the composition of the landscape in 1904, the centennial of Nathaniel Hawthorne's birth. This information provides a basis for the development of a treatment plan for the rehabilitation of the landscape to c. 1904, which coincides with the rehabilitation date identified for the interior of the house. The first draft of this report informed a major repair project undertaken in 2006 to stabilize the terraced hillside in back of the house and divert water runoff from the hillside away from the house. It also provided guidance for landscape rehabilitation work, including removal of hazardous trees, removal of nonhistoric vegetation and revitalization of the lawn. The study area for this report encompasses the three parcels within the 6.11-acre Wayside Unit, including the 3.16-acre parcel containing the eighteenth century home and barn, a .34 acre parcel east of Hawthorne Lane and a 2.61-acre parcel to the west of Hawthorne Lanebased on the acreage in the parks Geographic Information System (GIS) database. The study focuses on The Wayside and the steep ridge behind the house to the north.
