Historic House Signs

Southborough Historic House Sign Program

The Southborough Historical Commission has created a Historic House Sign Program, providing an opportunity to invest owners of historic or architecturally significant houses with pride, knowledge, and the ability to serve as conscious custodians of their home’s heritage.  We believe that Historic House signs enhance the appearance of older homes while promoting community awareness of our local history.
