Description
The Forbes House Museum is located atop Milton Hill in Milton Massachusetts, overlooking Boston's skyline, the Neponset River marshes, and Boston Harbor in the distance. In the early 1600s, the Neponset Tribe settled at this site along the Neponset River, overlooking the Great Blue Hills. In the late 1700s, the last royal governor of Massachusetts, Thomas Hutchinson (1711-1780), owned a 95-acre estate on Milton Hill and spent his leisure hours planting trees and cultivating his gardens.
