A driving tour of the mansion, music hall, school, and church one Gilded Age fortune built across Methuen
You can read a century of ambition off the facades of Methuen. Four stops over 1.6 miles, about 19 minutes of driving. Each one starts talking the moment you reach it, so you can keep your eyes on the street instead of a screen.
There is no start time to make — walk it in one go, or leave the rest for another afternoon.
