The Redstone School is an historic one-room school located in Sudbury, Massachusetts.[1] Built in 1798, it is believed to be the school which Mary Tyler (née Sawyer) took her lamb to in the nursery rhyme "Mary Had a Little Lamb".[2][3]
At the time of Tyler's attendance at the school, it was located in Sterling, Massachusetts. The property was later purchased by Henry Ford[4] and relocated to a churchyard, on the property of Longfellow's Wayside Inn, where it stands today.[2]
After closing in 1927, prior to its move, the school reopened for a further twenty-four years. It closed permanently in 1951.[2]
