The Woodberry-Quarrels House is a historic First Period house at 180 Bridge Street in Hamilton, Massachusetts. The oldest part of this 2.5 story, seven bay wood frame house is the central doorway and the rooms to its right, which were built c. 1690 along with a central chimney that was probably removed during Federal-period alterations. Later in the First Period rooms to the left of the entry were added, and there have been a series of alterations and additions since then. The First Period core of the house survived the major Federal-era changes, and the house retains much decorative work from that period.^[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.^[1]
