Wrapped around the Wachusett Reservoir, West Boylston provides a classic New England setting complete with expansive, wooded areas, historic charm, and large homes. First settled in 1642 and incorporated in 1808, West Boylston is known as the “small town with a big heart.” Today, it is a popular suburb of Worcester, located directly south. Residents of West Boylston enjoy easy access to the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Quinsigamond Community College, and Tower Hill Botanic Garden.
If you believe classic New England is synonymous with the Farmer’s Almanac, then it’s worth noting that the founder and editor of the Farmer’s Almanac, Robert B. Thomas, lived in West Boylston. He started the Farmer’s Almanac in 1792, making it the oldest continuously published periodical in the country. Other historic locations include Bigelow Tavern, built in 1810; the Oakdale Village Historic District, dating back to 1780; and the Quinapoxet River Bridge, built in 1903. One of the town’s most photo-worthy landmarks, the Old Stone Church, was built in 1891 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
