ASHLAND — Glenn Knoblock will present his illustrated talk "New Hampshire on High: Historic and Unusual Weathervanes of the Granite State" at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 27, in the Ashland School cafeteria. The program has been described as "a fun and engaging look at the historic and unusual weathervanes found on New Hampshire's churches, town halls and other public buildings from earliest times down to the present."
Knoblock will trace the history of weathervanes "from practical weather instrument to architectural embellishment." This free public program is mostly funded by New Hampshire Humanities and is sponsored by the Ashland Historical Society, which will also serve refreshments. The Society will display a ram weathervane that formerly graced an Ashland barn. Also on display in the school is the lyre weathervane that once topped the old Ashland School.
The Cafeteria is located in a wing of the Ashland Elementary School, at the far end of the school's main parking lot. The school is located on Education Way, off School Street in Ashland village.
