It holds 89 contributing and 53 noncontributing resources, mostly 19th-century farmhouses and farm outbuildings.","why_significant":"The district preserves a farming village and its open-field system, whose long rectangular lots trace back to land allotments made in 1682. Its houses show Federal-form, Greek Revival, Italianate and Colonial Revival styles, including several notable examples. The form says the district retains integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association.","narrative":"Bradstreet is a farming village in the northeast corner of Hatfield, Massachusetts, laid out on the flat floodplain of the Connecticut River. Houses and farm buildings sit close to Main Street and Depot Road, with broad open fields behind them where vegetables such as corn, squash and potatoes are still grown. Most buildings date from the 19th century and are wood-frame dwellings, tenant houses, barns and onion or tobacco storage buildings. Styles include Greek Revival houses such as those built by Edwin Harris and Gilbert Morton, and Italianate houses such as the Leland Wight House of 1868 with its cupola and paired brackets. The field pattern goes back to 1682, when land north of the Great Meadow was divided among Hatfield's proprietors into long rectangular lots, still visible along Bashan Road and Old Farms Path. The district is notable for keeping this agricultural landscape and its collection of farm buildings, despite some vinyl siding and modern infill.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Greek Revival; Italianate and Second Empire; Colonial Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Still largely agricultural and residential, with working farms, cemetery and fields.
