The district includes nine buildings, all of which front on Main Street (MA Route 32); five of these structures contribute to the district's significance. The most prominent of these are the Methodist Church (the town's second church, built 1850 in the Greek Revival style), the Universalist Church (stone, 1889), and Memorial Town Hall (1885, separately listed on the National Register). The other two contributing buildings are the Universalist Parsonage (an 1820 Federalist house), and the Noble Block, a c. 1890 Victorian-era commercial block. Also contributing to the district are two cannons located on the lawn of Memorial Hall, and Cushman Fountain, built in 1886 and moved to its present site early in the 20th century.
