Grafton Inn
The Grafton Inn is a historic inn at 25 Grafton Common in Grafton, Massachusetts. The three story wood and brick building was built in 1805 by Samuel Wood, with a design influenced by the work of Charles Bulfinch. The building was significantly enlarged c. 1865–75, doubling its size and adding the Italianate front porch. It is a wood frame structure, with brick ends, a hip roof, and cupola-like belvedere.[2]
