PLYMOUTH — Join the Plymouth Historical Society for a walking tour of Plymouth on Saturday, July 16 for a historical walking tour of Plymouth, with a focus on the area in and around the Common.
Learn about the many buildings that contribute to Plymouth’s unique character and how they have evolved over the years in response to changing times. Find out about the personalities, including writers, politicians, abolitionists, and athletes, that have shaped Plymouth’s history or just passed through briefly to visit the once majestic Pemigewasset House, to teach at the college, or to visit the Draper & Maynard Sporting Goods Company. You will visit sites on the National Registry of Historic Places, appreciate the stories that lay behind the unique sculptures and paintings created for Plymouth over the years, and gain a deeper knowledge of Plymouth’s important place in New England history as a hub for education and the burgeoning tourist industry. If you have your own stories to share of Plymouth, the society always welcome those as well.
Participants will meet at the Boy Scout sculpture in the Common at 10:30 a.m.
