The Capt. Benjamin James House in Scituate, MA, is a historic First Period house turned museum, originally built around 1700 by Captain Benjamin James. Over the years, the house evolved into its present five-bay saltbox configuration and served as a pest house for smallpox victims in the 18th century. Today, the house is home to the Maritime and Irish Mossing Museum, showcasing exhibits on the mossing industry, North River shipbuilding, shipwrecks, and life-saving efforts. Managed by the Scituate Historical Society, the museum is open to visitors on select days throughout the year, offering a glimpse into the rich maritime history of the region.Generated from the website
