Join local archaeologist Kimberly Connors to uncover the hidden history of South Acton’s Mill Corner. Our 1 1/2-mile hike will start at the Jones Tavern and highlight historic industrial sites from the early 18th-through the mid-20th centuries. We will discuss what features allowed South Acton to be the home of mills, factories, and a regional railroad junction. We will use sidewalks as well as unpaved surfaces during our walk, so please wear the proper footwear.
