Subject: [MassHistPres] Cemetery Fencing Project
A neighborhood group is beginning the process of applying for CPA funds to =
replace a dilapidated chain link fence at a historic cemetery with a more h=
istorically appropriate type of fencing.
Has anyone had experience with this type of project and have suggestions on=
fencing companies to contact, or any other pointers as we get started?
Thanks very much-

mmission used Jeff Schiff, Schiff Architectural Detail, to manufacture the =
Hingham Centre Cemetery fence, which was also a chain link
replacement. Jeff made the pattern for the new fence from a very old=
, grainy photograph of the original fence. The work had to be done in=
stages as funds (from CPA and other sources) became available. The H=
istorical Commission, the Hingham Centre Cemetery
Corporation (all of Hingham’s cemeteries are private) and the town i=
n general, were extremely pleased with the quality of materials, the workma=
nship and customer service. Schiff Architectural Detail just finished=
another great job for the Hingham Historical
Society designing and manufacturing the railing on the staircase in front =
of Old Derby Academy.
