About me:
You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM's MySpace Profile Editor!
THE MISSION OF THE SOUTH COUNTY MUSEUM IS TO INSPIRE WONDER AND A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE AGRICULTURAL AND RURAL VILLIAGE LIFE IN COASTAL RHODE ISLAND BEFORE THE EMERGENCE OF SUBURBAN COMMUNITIES.
SCM is located in a 174-acre town park that was the 19th-century estate of Rhode Island's Civil War-era governor and post-war senator, William Sprague. In addition to the office building, the caretaker's cottage (a private home and not an exhibit) and outbuildings for animals, the campus features these exhibit buildings or areas.
-Metz Building
-Printshop
-Carpentry shop
-Blacksmith
-Early Transportation Exhibit
-Working Farm
