Jacob Whittemore House, 62l Marrett St Lexington, Middlesex County, MA
Built about 1743, the Jacob Whittemore House is notable as the house of Minute Man John Muzzey and later of Isaac Muzzey who died in the skirmish with British regulars on Lexington Green, April 19, 1775. The house is situated just west of "The Bluff," a rallying point for British regulars as they retreated down the Lexington Road from Concord. The house is the only remaining historically significant structure along the Battle Road in Lexington. It appears to have been built as a one room deep house with kitchen shed and loft additions.
