'Houses with History', an HGTV home renovation series shot at Plymouth, Massachusetts, looks at the homework and research that brings to the fore some fascinating backstories of America's oldest homes.

The team of three, Mike Lemieux, Jennifer MacDonald, and Rich Soares, scan through Plymouth County and its surrounding wooded areas, predominantly south of Boston. They come across and transform 18th and 19th-century homes into brand-new ones, all whilst still preserving their natural history. For this motivated team, saving a home means saving a piece of history.
