Brethrens Shop entrance at Hancock Shaker Village #171124067
Description
This building was one of many structures at Hancock Shaker Village that served as a workshop for the Brethren. It was built circa 1813. Hancock brothers made brooms, hats, wool cards, shoes, wooden measures, tin ware, and packaged garden seeds and medicines ââ¬â both for sale and home use. During restoration performed in the 1960s, stone carving tools and stone chips were found in the basement, indicating that gravestones were lettered in this building.
