The Historical Exhibits at Carillon Park
In a desire to perpetuate some of those links with the past which are rapidly passing from the scene, an historical exhibit has been set up in Carillon Park. The caretaker’s house has been built as a replica of an old grist mill and includes a water wheel which turns a millstone, just as in the mills of yesterday.
Most of the other exhibits are concerned with transportation and tell the story of man’s progress from the days of the Conestoga wagon, the Concord coach and the canal, to the airplane. They also include a covered bridge which long served the people of this valley and a grasshopper locomotive, the oldest in existence.
