WPA Field House and Pump Station

The WPA Field House and Pump Station is a historic water works facility on Henry Bailey Turner Road in Scituate, Massachusetts. The field house at Bound Brook Park was built in 1938–9 with funding from the Works Progress Administration, and is a rare historical recreational building in the town. The building is 1.5 stories, 38 feet (12 m) deep and 41 feet (12 m) wide, and built of stone with a slate side-gable roof. Its front facade is sheltered by a porch that lies under the roof and is supported by stone piers; there is a center entry that is flanked on each side by a window. The building was used for storage (in the basement) and for community group meetings, and was shuttered in 1981. In 2009 it was undergoing restoration.^[2]
