Bus Tour of Barkhamsted Hollow and Saville Dam
- September 24, 2006
The weather was decent for our bus tour of Barkhamsted
Hollow and the Saville Dam
on September 24, 2006. There were just a few sprinkles here and there.
The tour covered historical sites in the Hollow- sites of former cemeteries, tavern,
churches, school and farms. Also included was a walk through the lower gate
house of the Saville Dam. After the tour, many took advantage of the open
house at the Squire's Tavern to see the progress being made on the restoration of
the building as well as the Farmington River Coordinating Committee's display of
photos and artwork relating to the Farmington River.
