In 1972 the North Attleborough Historical Society acquired the Little Red Schoolhouse, a circa 1850s building, which had served the Adamsdale section of town. The building was relocated to a site adjacent to the Woodcock Garrison House at 362 North Washington Street. To make way for the schoolhouse, the Society demolished a house that had been used by the society for storage.
A small addition was made to the rear of the schoolhouse for a kitchen, restrooms, and storage. A cupola and bell were also added. The North Attleborough Historical Society has used the schoolhouse for meetings ever since. It has become a popular location for events of all kinds, most notably the third-grade visitation program.
