[MassHistPres] quarantine quiz

[Dennis De Witt]

I’m hoping someone can help me ID the location of an y of these photos, all taken on Nov. 10, 1899.  They show the 25 ton cast iron base of a steam pumping engine being relocated from Roxbury to the east side of Spot Pond in Stoneham.  A note for one of them suggests that they may be in Medford _ but I’m open to other suggestions.  

I don’t know if it was moved by road the whole way or may have been moved part way by rail or water.   I will note that this is a well surfaced road, but not one with a trolley line.

These photos have a lot of detail when blown up.

Thanks

Note the church steeples marked with arrows.  One of the two on the right looks like HHR’s Grace Episcopal, but the other does not look like  any other I see on line for Medford


Note the shingled church steeple.  There is also an electric street lamp and a spout for filling wagons for watering the road  The drug store offers an ice cream soda for a nickel !


Seemingly a country crossroad but with granite curbs, a water spout, and gas lamps


Between the buildings you can see a railroad line and siding.  The building on the left reads like it might be a station.
