Dorchester Illustration of the Day no. 1998
We have seen Ashmont Hall in the past from its north side. Here is the south side.
Known as Ashmont Hall, this bungalow-type building housed “elegant social evenings,” children’s dancing classes, a neighborhood kindergarten and a private school program. Built between 1884 and 1889, it was utilized as the Ashmont Universalist Church beginning about 1894. It is now a private residence.
