Sherborn was settled in 1652, and its town center — anchored by the 1914 Tudor Revival Dowse Memorial Building and a pair of 1830s churches — forms an 85-acre National Register Historic District. About 18 miles southwest of Boston, the town is built around Farm Pond and remains one of the lowest-density communities in MetroWest.

How Hub Saves Sherborn Customers Money
Consolidating under one Hub contract also tends to cost less than piecing together separate vendors for guards, patrol, and investigative work: one onboarding process instead of several, no coverage gaps that force you to pay a second vendor’s overtime rate to fill them, and one predictable monthly invoice instead of surprise call-out fees. That matters in Sherborn, where large rural properties around Farm Pond sit close to the historic town center — Hub can bundle coverage across both under a single route instead of billing each separately.
Sherborn’s own history is well preserved: the town was settled in 1652, and its town center — anchored by the 1914 Tudor Revival Dowse Memorial Building and a pair of 1830s churches — forms an 85-acre National Register Historic District. About 18 miles southwest of Boston, the town is built around Farm Pond and remains one of the lowest-density communities in MetroWest. Hub’s licensed guards support both Sherborn’s historic town center and its rural residential properties.
