Abdalian, Photographer; Munroe Tavern, 1695. Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, Mass. On the left, just before reaching Lexington village is the Munroe Tavern, a dingy square house shaded by large trees. It was built in 1695. Earl Percy made it his headquarters, and to it were borne the wounded British soldiers after the fight on the Green. A caretaker was killed and the house set on fire by the departing "guests," but fortunately the old building escaped destruction.</div>
