Bradford College Monuments

Several Bradford College monuments and markers are currently being reviewed by the Bradford Historic Commission for possible installation.  T
 
The first marker is planned to be situated in front of Kimball Tavern.  The new owners of Kimball Tavern, the Woods Family are long time residents of Bradford.  They have resurrected a buried mill stone from the Kimball property.  The family would like to install the mill stone standing perpendicular to the ground and place a marker in front of the mill stone.  The marker would date Kimball Tavern and explain that Bradford Academy was founded at that site in 1803. 
 
A Bradford College monument is being discussed for the Bradford common.  The Bradford Common is owned by the Congregational Church that stands across the street.  The church is reviewing plans to have an obelisk installed on the common that would outline the three major campus time periods -  Bradford Academy, Bradford Junior College and Bradford College.  The obelisk would stand approximately 7 feet tall on a base of granite.
 
The final marker for Bradford is being discussed with Zion College.  Dr. Charles Crabtree, President of Zion College, has suggested that there be a marker at the "heart of campus" to commemorate the 197 year old Bradford institution.  Initial concept drawings are being prepared to set a marker in what many alumni remember as "the cookie."  The "cookie" is that circle of land directly in front of Academy Hall.  It is rumored that there are time capsules buried from previous Bradford classes in this spot of campus.  The Bradford Alumni Association is endeavoring to fund this monument and hopes to incorporate elements of our Bradford history.  Donations for each of these Bradford monuments are actively being sought.
