The Lincolnshire is a grand mansion at 22 Hidden Road and 28 Hidden Way in Andover, Massachusetts, United States.
The mansion was built between 1897 and 1898 for Henry Bradford Lewis (1868-1951), who made a considerable fortune from his scouring mills in Lawrence. Lewis was in charge of the three mills of the E. Frank Lewis Co. and the American Lanolin Co., which employed 500 persons at their peak.
The architects of the house were Merrill & Cutler of Lowell. It was formerly attributed to George G. Adams of Lawrence, who designed a similar mansion for Lewis' father in that city.
At his death in 1951, Lewis left this house and its greenhouse, to his wife Lillian. The house was too large to be maintained for only one occupant, and the building was sold in 1953 to C. Lincoln Giles and converted into apartments. The carriage house is now a single-family residence.
The mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places because it is distinguished:
The house was built in the Colonial Revival style structure with some Palladian and Queen Anne elements, along with ocular windows. It has cross-gambrel pavilions and a small window in an exterior chimney. The original, Colonial Revival carriage house at the rear is similarly large in scale, with wood shingles and a large gambrel roof. [2]
Essex County is a county in the northeastern part of the U.S. state of Massachusetts. At the 2020 census, the total population was 809,829, making it the third-most populous county in the state, and the eightieth-most populous in the country. It is part of the Greater Boston area. The largest city in Essex County is Lynn. The county was named after the English county of Essex. It has two traditional county seats: Salem and Lawrence. Prior to the dissolution of the county government in 1999, Salem had jurisdiction over the Southern Essex District, and Lawrence had jurisdiction over the Northern Essex District, but currently these cities do not function as seats of government. However, the county and the districts remain as administrative regions recognized by various governmental agencies, which gathered vital statistics or disposed of judicial case loads under these geographic subdivisions, and are required to keep the records based on them. The county has been designated the Essex National Heritage Area by the National Park Service.
