Perhaps one of the prettiest Painted Ladies in town can be found at the corner of Maple and High Streets. The Easton House is now a part of the Fall River Historical Society complex which encompasses the Brayton Mansion, Victorian Garden and fountain, Pavillion, and Gazebo Garden. Easton House is also a tearoom which offers cream teas in seasonable weather. There are several fine lighting fixtures which were rescued from demolished buildings, including the Durfee Theater, and they now illuminate the beautiful
front rooms and entry hall of Easton House.
The star of the garden must be the original gazebo cast by the New York firm of Chase and Company Ornamental Ironworks in 1869. It is a favorite spot for families, honeymooners and wedding parties to gather for a photograph both now- and in 1869.
