SUMMARY:The Middlesex Canal Winchester's “Highway” 1803-1853
DESCRIPTION:The Winchester Historical Society invites you to\nThe Middlesex Canal Winchester's “Highway” 1803-1853\n A talk by Tom Raphael\nBefore the railroad came to South Woburn\, the Middlesex Canal was critical to the area’s economy. From 1803 to 1853\, commercial boats moved timber and granite 27 miles from Lowell to Charlestown and brought supplies and consumer goods back through Winchester. Tourists traveled the Canal and stopped at the resort on Horn Pond where they could picnic\, dine at a restaurant\, swim\, or listen to band concerts.\nTom Raphael\, Chairman of the Executive Board of the Middlesex Canal Commission\, will describe the history of the Canal which was such an integral part of Winchester’s past.\nFree and open to the public.\nRefreshments at 7 p.m.\nProgram begins at 7:30 p.m.
