Pelham is a classic hill town in western Massachusetts: pretty, quaint and growing once again after centuries of slow decline. Today, Pelham has a unique distinction: the oldest town hall (right) in continuous use. Pelham's congregational church (left) was constructed in 1839 and is now a museum. Photos by David Kidd.
