Settled in 1639, Sudbury is one of the oldest towns in New England. Its residents look upon their town - a mix of historic homes, cemeteries, rambling stone walls, and picturesque open spaces - as a valued respected part of New England deserving of appreciation and thoughtful planning.
Annual Town Meetings began here in Sudbury and continue today. Holly and harvest fairs, and even a local fife and drum corps remind residents that the best of the past can enrich and enhance the present. Here is the renowned Wayside Inn - the tales of which were made famous by one of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poems. Built in the 1680's and thought to be the oldest inn in the country, the Wayside Inn today attracts visitors from all over. This charming hostelry, with its colonial furniture and fireplaced rooms, stands on grounds with other remnants of New England's past, including the little red schoolhouse attended by "Mary and her little lamb" of nursery rhyme fame. Each year, local school children dressed in old fashioned attire hold a class in the enchanting schoolhouse.
More than 10,000 acres here still belong to forests, crops, and pastures, making the town seem much farther than its 18 miles from west of Boston. Reminders of the town's earlier farming days are evident in the old barns, wells, stone walls, pastures, and roads which follow the lay of the land, not a designer's plan.
Most homes here sit on large lots, making gardening a popular warm weather pasttime. Though the town's population grew about 10% from 1970-1975, the density per square mile is one of the lowest in Metropolitan Boston. Public recreational facilities include tennis courts, bridle trails, baseball and soccer fields (memberships to private golf, swim and tennis clubs are available). The town also sponsors well-organized scouting and Little League programs, Pop Warner football, youth hockey, junior ski programs, soccer and basketball. Adults can enjoy Sudbury's Newcomer's Club (which also welcomes oldcomers), Garden Club, Professional Woman's Club and a local theatre group. An active Chamber of Commerce helps to promote Sudbury pride.
Schoolchildren attend town schools. The Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School has an outstanding record in college acceptances. Standardized test scores for students are far above state and national averages.
