Most small towns feel fortunate in having a historical museum of two or three
rooms. Here in Cummington, the museum is an early 1800's house of seventeen rooms,
which was a tavern. There is also a replica of a 1900 country store, a two-story
barn, a carriage shed, and an 1840's cider mill. |
| Alice Steele, a nationally known miniaturist, spent her life in this area. She made over 300 miniature rooms, each a work of art. The seventeen, which are in this museum, all made and given by her, represent rooms or shops that were connected with Cummington. In perfect scale of one inch to one foot, the furnishings are antiques collected over the years, or furniture and other items made by her husband, Frank Steele, a cabinet-maker. This collection is just one of the treasures of the Kingman Tavern Museum |

Minature Rooms |
Country Store |
The museum was able to acquire the complete fixtures of a Cummington
general store that had gone out of business. A new building was constructed around
the fixtures using old wood. |
 |
| The larger two-story barn has an exceptional collection of hand and farm tools, arranged in categories of use. Jacob Lovell made many of the planes exhibited in Cummington. The carriage shed has an ox-shoeing frame, a snow roller for roads, a school bus on runners for winter use, an ice cutter, and a butter and egg wagon, all used in Cummington. The 1840's cider mill with its wooden gears is in working condition except for the press. The wear on the wooden teeth shows the years of use. |
