Newtown Historians Hosting Self-Guided Tour Of Tyler State Park

NEWTOWN BOROUGH, PA — The Newtown Historic Association will host a self-guided walking tour of Tyler State Park on Sunday, Sept. 22.

The tour of the park's historic properties and farmhouses scattered throughout the park grounds begins at 10 a.m. at the Boathouse Pavilion.

As part of this ticketed event, representatives from both the Newtown Historic Association and the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources will be on hand to provide a general overview and answer questions at the beginning of the day.

All registrants will receive an informative Tyler Park historical book. This limited-edition, 100-page book contains rare photographs and detailed descriptions of the many historic properties and farmhouses, including the construction of the Tyler mansion, and how they were acquired by the Tyler family in the early 1900s.

Once registrants receive their tour book and orientation, they will be free to tour the park on their own. Children under 12 are free for this event.
