301 Driftway, Scituate

The Maritime & Irish Mossing Museum will be open to the public with guided and educational tours by The Scituate Historical Society. Come learn about Scituate’s deep and rich history.

Set in the 1739 residence of Captain Benjamin James – a militia captain and shoemaker – the Society’s Maritime & Irish Mossing Museum stands out as one of the Commonwealth’s true “gems” of local history. Envisioned, designed, and curated by Society volunteers, this unique museum opened its doors in 1997.
