Historic Site Tours Begin!
The Newport Historic Society will offer tours of three of Newport's most historic sites (begun Easter weekend). The Great Friends Meeting House (1699), the oldest surviving house of worship in Rhode Island; Wanton-Lyman-Hazard House (ca 1697), the oldest surviving house in Newport and Colony House (1736-1739), the seat of colonial government, will be available to tour by arrangement.
The site specific tours will depart 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. from the Museum & Shop at Brick Market, 127 Thames Street.
The tours can be tailored to guests' requests; visitors can tour one or all of the properties, at a cost of $8 per person, per site.
To arrange for tours, call 401 841 8770.
Walk-ins will be accommodated as guide availability permits.
