Historic Walking Tour of Newtown

October 27 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

Our June event was very well attended so we’re offering a second one this year!

Take a guided walking tour of historic Newtown with Jeff Marshall, historic architecture author, past-president of the Heritage Conservancy, and NHA Board member. Learn about Newtown’s architecture and history and get some exercise while you are doing it!

The tour route is typically determined by Jeff and the attendees, and will feature architecturally significant Newtown buildings in the Borough.

Jeff will share his wealth of knowledge and passion for the history of Newtown, and provide an enjoyable stroll through town.

Come, bring a friend, and learn something new about Newtown’s interesting buildings and history. No reservations necessary.

A “good will” donation of $20.00 would be appreciated. You can pay by cash or online on the day of the event (QR code / URL will be provided).
