We invite you to travel back in time to learn about 346 Pleasant Street in historic Portsmouth, NH!

During our historical tours we will take you through a riveting history that all begins when this mansion was built in 1763. It was purchased by the Wentworth family and with few exceptions stayed within their lineage through time. What was not as consistent was the who, what and when all of such has made it into our history books.

This residence is listed on the National Register of Historical Places partially on the account of former British Governor of NH during the peak of the American Revolution, but none the less continued to make the morning paper when the nursing home was incorporated in 1911 and named after one of many Mark Wentworths, up to the remodeled structure it is known as today.

Centuries have come and gone, yet from bullet holes in the mantel of the front parlor room, to the structure of the staircase and fireplaces, show that the significance is all still very prevalent.

See the original wallpaper that still stands with its paper mâché boarders, or come to hear about the scandalous endeavors of John Wentworth and his wife Frances Wentworth Atkinson
