The Littleton Historical Society needs your help! As evidenced by the photograph below, the Houghton Memorial Building has sustained significant water damage from leaks in the roof. Roof repairs are necessary to prevent further damage and to preserve historical artifacts.

An article to repair the roof will be voted on at Town Meeting on May 4, 2009. We invite members of the community to learn more about the proposal to repair the roof by following the links below. We encourage everyone to attend Town Meeting to support the article to appropriate CPA funds for the project.
