Property: Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate

Title: Letter from Ed Bolster to Keith Morgan, 1976 July 23

Type: Correspondence and communication

Description: Typed correspondence from Edward Bolster to Keith Morgan regarding contacts for Morgan's research on Cherry Hill in Canton, Massachusetts. Morgan, an art and architecture historian, went on to write an article titled, "Cherry Hill: Its architecture and landscape," that was published by the Trustees of Reservations in 1991. Bolster was the president of the Canton Historical Society at the time of correspondence. Letter is written on Commonwealth of Massachusetts letterhead. Cherry Hill was purchased by Eleanor Cabot Bradley's (1893-1990) grandfather in 1865. As it passed through the Cabot family, additional acreage was acquired and a house was built on the property. Bradley inherited Cherry Hill in 1945 and began living there full time with her husband, Ralph Bradley (1888-1970), in 1962. Together with caretaker Reg Harris, the Bradleys developed the estate to include a woodland walk, horticultural vignettes, and a Sunken Camellia House. Cherry Hill was acquired by The Trustees in 1991, when it was renamed the Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate.
