Site of a major ambush in 1775. One of the important Battle Road features associated with that year.            

Site of the Battle of Menotomy. One of Arlington's oldest structures. During the Revolutionary War it was the home of Jonathan Whittemore, whose brother Samuel was gravely wounded but survived. By the time the British retreat was over, 40 British soldiers had been killed and 80 wounded. Among the colonials, 25 were killed, 10 wounded, and three taken prisoner.            

In Arlington Civic Block. Burial place of Revolutionary War soldiers. 18th Century stone wall, and obelisk marking the common grave of 12 minutemen who died on April 19, 1775.

The park was named for Capt. George Cooke, recipient of the original grant of a mill privilege on Mill Brook.  The small park at Cooke's Hollow is built where Mill Brook emerges and flows on toward the Mystic Lakes. There were mills on this site until the early 1900s.

Restored, the house now stands in Whittemore Park in Arlington Center and contains the Arlington Chamber of Commerce Visitor's Center. The Cutters are one of the oldest families in Arlington.

The tower stands on one of the highest hills in Arlington, 377 feet above sea level. Today it is part of the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority.

In this small park there is a monument on the site of the only Black Masonic Cemetery in the United States, which held deceased members of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge F & Am. Even though much of the site was developed in 1988, remains of the original gate and an obelisk were found.

One of Arlington’s oldest structures, the Butterfield-Whittemore house is a Colonial brick-ended, hipped-roof house. During the Revolutionary War it was the home of Jonathan Whittemore, whose brother Samuel was gravely wounded on April 19, 1775.

A Colonial house with a Greek revival colonnaded porch, it was owned by the Cutter family and then, later, by the Whittemore and the Shattuck families.

This cemetery was the burial place for Revolutionary War soldiers.

Operated as a house museum, this Colonial house with its later additions is owned by the Arlington Historical Society.

This is the site of one of the bloodiest battles of April 19, 1775, when retreating British soldiers were interrupted by a group of Colonial militiamen. The roads to the west were rocky but from here to the east the going was much easier. The area is now a small triangular park at the intersection of Massachusetts Ave and Lowell Street, marked by an inscribed stone and a granite drinking fountain with basins at different heights for adults, children, dogs and horses. The Robbins sisters in memory of their brother Olney donated the fountain, which until 1913 stood next to the First Parish Church.
