More About Brighton, Massachusetts

History

Brighton is a neighborhood in Boston. It was formally a part of Cambridge known as Little Cambridge until it was separated from Cambridge in 1807. The neighborhood was annexed to Boston in 1874. The neighborhood of Allston was also a part of the town of Brighton until it was separated and assumed the name “Allston Brighton for the merged area.

In 1630, Allston-Brighton and Newton were part of Watertown until in 1634 when the Massachusetts Bay Colony transferred the ownership of the Southside of the Charles River comprising of Allston-Brighton, Newtown, Watertown, and Newtown. The area was later renamed to Cambridge.

The first English settlers crossed the Charles River from Cambridge. Little Cambridge now Brighton was a farming community before the American Revolutionary War. The neighborhood was home to wealthy merchants from Boston, such as Benjamin Fanueil.
In 1775, a cattle market was set up in the neighborhood to supply the continental army after the revolutionary war. It was established by Jonathan Winship I & II. In the 1820s, Brighton became one of the most important gardening communities in Boston. Its finesse in horticultural practice contributed to its beautiful scenery.

In 1834, the Boston & Worcester Railroad was constructed. Rail transport contributed to the cattle trade by easing the transportation of meat across Boston. By 1866, the town had 41 slaughterhouses. These were merged into Brighton Abattoir and Brighton Stock Yards. Brighton is bordered by Cambridge, Newton, Brookline, and Watertown. Brighton is separated from Cambridge and Watertown by the Charles River.
