The Woodbridge Street Historic District is a predominantly residential historic district in South Hadley, Massachusetts. It extends from the junction of Woodbridge Street and Silver Street north roughly to Woodbridge Terrace. The majority of buildings in the district are houses that were built in the 18th and 19th centuries. One of the more notable properties is the Skinner Museum of nearby Mount Holyoke College, which is located in the former Prescott, Massachusetts congregational church. The 19th century Greek Revival church was relocated here by philanthropist Joseph Allen Skinner in the 1930s when the construction of the Quabbin Reservoir necessitated the unincorporation of the small town.[2]

The district includes properties from 25-82 Woodbridge Street, and at 3 and 7 Silver Street. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
