Day Trip to Old Wethersfield in Hartford County, CT
Submitted by Tania Pesce on
There are plenty of historical places to visit in Connecticut, but Old Wethersfield is one of the oldest and is named "Ye Most Auncient Towne." Sequestered from the modern town of Wethersfield, Old Wethersfield has maintained their small community feel with a bustling Main Street, quaint shoppes and wholesome places for kids to enjoy. The streets of Old Wethersfield are lined with over 300 historical houses with 50 even built before the American Revolution. Here are my top ten things to do in and around Old Wethersfield.
If you're looking for more local history, take a day to visit Harriet Beecher Stowe's home or the Noah Webster house, both of which made legendary impacts on Nutmeg history.
