Probably… if all that dang water wasn’t in the way… actually there is supposed to be one in Wrentham (not to be confused with Waltham or Cannedham), in Norfolk… that might be closer to you and a drier trip.
They appear to be open until 8pm… so if you hurry you might make it.

Well, Wrentham is about a 25 minute drive...when it's not rush hour. There's a big outlet park there, the Wrentham Outlets.

Funny one, about the Cannedham! I often joke about the cities in our state. I sum it up by saying, "There's a ton of ham in the borough!" There is Norton, Brockton, Boston, Taunton, Dighton, Plympton, Stoughton, Milton, Easton, Newton, Norton, Weston, Brighton, Lexinton, Arlington, Burlington, Littleton, Groton, Templeton, Royalston, Philipston, Bernardston, Dalton, Washington, Easthampton, Westhampton, Southhampton, Paxton, Princeton, Hopkinton, Upton, Ashburnham, Stoneham, Bellingham, Waltham, Hingham, Dedham, Needham, Wareham, Framingham, Tyringham, Wilbraham, Attleboro, North Attleborough, Boxborough, Westborough, Northborough, Southborough, Middleborough, Marlborough, New Marlborough. there are several "mouth"s as well. I get the feeling that people who were naming towns were hungry! :D

When the US was first formed, before the Revolution, many towns were first named after English towns, mostly along the eastern seaboard.

Took me a while to find a pic online of the one on 401 South, Raleigh, NC. As far as I know, the church in the background is still there.

I did a little more checking today with Google maps. The church is still there, and the store is now a car dealership. If you squint, between the church spire and store sign You can make out a telephone pole with transformers.... still there in the background. :D
