We look at a historic 1-room school house, on the corner of Wachusett and Pleasant Streets, School House  No. 6, Leominster, Massachusetts.
The original building was built in 1767, then replaced in 1792, and replaced yet again with the present building in 1851, all on the same plot of land.
  The builing has seen good and bad times, as as noted, it needs TLC, but it's not in dire straits, like it was in the very early 1980's.
  We get a look inside the builing, to see it's definately a community center, as there's no old desks anymore, but the room is still in 1931 condition, more or less, down to the (barely visible) pot-belly stove, used to heat the builing, even today.
