Also in the north end of town, New Boston Road, which passes by the Charlton Hospital is peppered with charming smaller Victorian homes and storefronts.  The former 1890 Leanna Barker grocery store is a captivating and nicely -restored storefront, now functioning as Dr. McDonald’s Primary Care office. The porch is an inviting spot to linger in the summer months.

After admiring the houses on New Boston Road, a pot of tea and fresh cream puffs may be enjoyed in Victorian splendor at the New Boston Bakery.
