Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 24., The towers of Medford. (search)
paringly applied, save in one instance, that of the first Brooks School at West Medford. A description of this may be found in Vol. XIX of the Register. The tower often lends itself to the utility of a factory, but Medford had few of such. We have been told of one, the Stearns oil mill, that had a detached chimney some fifty feet high that in time was moved across the branch canal in its upright position, securely too, to a new location, certainly quite a feat to perform. The same Mr. Stearns had a windmill tower of brick, the ruin of which may still be seen beside College avenue. With its revolving sails it was an interesting sight, especially when in operation. In sight of that was another tower (once a windmill), the old powder house just over the line in Somerville. Harvard College erected on the hill beside Winthrop street in 1850 a tower, or cairn of rock, only a few years ago removed. This was for a meridian mark, and due north from the observatory at Cambridge.
