Built after Grafton formed its fire department in 1852 or 1853. This small firehouse is squeezed on a small lot was originally located in Grafton Center and moved to this location in 1885. For awhile it had been converted to a storage facility, was refurbished in 2010 and now is a museum.

It was previously located across the street and moved to its present location in 1890. It was moved to accommodate the building of residential properties.
