Old Town Hall Renovation Projects

The Town of Sharon’s Old Town Hall, a single-story brick building built in 1830, is a cornerstone of our Town’s history and has been the home of the Sharon Historical Society’s Museum collection since 1990. Unfortunately, during a conditions assessment provided by Jan Lewandowski of Restoration and Traditional Building, we learned that while the “the interior of the Old Town Hall is in good, original or early, condition”, the floor and the floor framing “are failing along both gables”.

The Old Town Hall is now closed until we can repair the structural damage.

Together with the Town and with the support of the Preservation Trust of Vermont, the Sharon Historical Society has been working to secure funding for capital improvements to the building.
