Samuel Croft house on the corner

Still standing today at 26 Weybridge Road.

Washington St. is to the left, Prospect St. to the right. The house on the corner, its outbuildings in the rear, and the house on the right on Prospect St. were removed for the Police station / municipal court building opened in the fall of 1900.

This house was built in 1715 by Samuel Clark (the 2nd) and was eventually occupied by 6 generations of the Clark family until its demolition in 1902. Caleb Clark, born in 1789 in the fourth generation, took ownership of the house and, in 1862, his son, another Samuel, constructed a house next door at 310 Walnut St. Samuel’s daughter, Helen Clark, took over the house with her husband, William S. Cutler. When they moved to a new house steps away on Chestnut St., the Clark house was rented until 1898 to the just-widowed Alma Charity Mears Macallister (see additional photo of the house).

In early 1908, the church moved here from its prior location at the corner of Pierce and Harvard. The Presbyterian Church then relocated from its Prospect St. location to the old Baptist Church building in early 1910. When the church was demolished in 1973 the bell was saved from the tower and is now in the courtyard of the new building on the site.
