This cute, small community is in west-central Massachusetts and a few miles west of the world-famous Brimfield, MA Antique Flea Market that is held three times a year. The extended type or "alley arm" crossarms seen along the left appear to have supported electric service lines in this image. Many if not all of these trees fell during the Great Hurricane of 1938.
