The Stoneham Archive

This special collection relates to North Stoneham House (and the parkland): its architecture and design; the architect; the house's dispersed contents, collections, and Library; and the people who lived and worked there.

The Archive is drawn together from various sources including previously unseen Willis Fleming family papers, and includes an image library, and oral history recorded with people who remember Stoneham.
