“Sanborn House Keeps Getting Better”
We should all be proud of what the Winchester Historical Society and the greater Winchester community has accomplished here at the Sanborn House. For an informal summary of what we’ve done over the past few years and to learn about some of our thoughts for the future, take a look at this article from last week’s Daily Times Chronicle.
