On this site in 1773 Seth Heywood one of Gardner's original settlers built his home. Later he was one of the four men who circulated the petition for the incorporation of the town of Gardner.

In 1826 the grandson of Seth Heywood began the manufacturing of chairs on this site, thus initiating the construction chairs on an industrial scale within the town of Gardner.

Gardner's town hall was constructed on this site in 1859. The building was destroyed by fire in 1944.
