Weathervane Wednesday ~ Above a Meetinghouse

I post another in a series of weather vane photographs every Wednesday.  This started with images of weathervanes from the Londonderry, New Hampshire area, but now I've found interesting weather vanes all across New England and across the globe.  Sometimes my weather vanes are whimsical, or historical, but all are interesting.  Often my readers tip me off to some very unique or unusual weathervanes, too!  If you know a great weather vane near you, let me know if you'd like to have it featured on this blog.

Today's weather vane was photographed in Massachusetts

Do you know the location of weathervane post #342?  Scroll down to find the answer.




This gilded, swallow tailed arrow weathervane can be seen on the steeple above the "Center Meetinghouse" at Old Sturbridge Village museum in Sturbridge, Massachusetts.  This building was originally the Baptist Church built in 1832 in Sturbridge.  It was moved to the living history museum in 1947.  The interior was restored to look like the original interior in the 1830s.
