The Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate is a nonprofit country house and garden ground museum in Canton, Massachusetts. It is operated by The Trustees of Reservations. The grounds are open every day, sunrise to sunset, without charge.

History

In 1902, Dr. Arthur Tracey Cabot (b. 1852 in Boston to Dr. Samuel Cabot III and Hannah Lowell Jackson Cabot)[1] hired architect Charles A. Platt to design a country house with landscaping and outlying farm buildings. Its formal grounds include lawns, a walled garden, and a parterre. Dr. Cabot had seven siblings,[2] but no children.[3] The estate was passed on to his niece, Eleanor Cabot (daughter of his brother, Godfrey Lowell Cabot), who married Major Ralph Bradley in 1919.[4]

In 1945, she added ponds, a camellia house and greenhouse, and planted specimen trees. Additional land includes more than Шаблон:Convert of meadows and woods, with some Шаблон:Convert of walking trails.

The property was acquired through a bequest of Eleanor Cabot Bradley in 1991.[5]
