Andover Cottage Looking Down the Hill

Andover Cottage was built through the generous donations of residents of the town of Andover, spearheaded by Miss Emily Carter. It was completed in 1893 and was the residence for 10 students, an instructor and a janitor. It is located on Old Campus Road. The layout for the grounds surrounding it was done by Frederick Law Olmsted. This shows why the school is sometimes referred to as Andover Hill. Before the trees all grew up, a view in any direction away from campus was downhill.
