Barnet's Historic Goodwillie House Museum will be open for tours this coming Saturday, June 17 from 10 until 3.
The Goodwillie House is located on Barnet Center Road, a quarter mile north of West Barnet/Peacham Road. There is no admission charge.
Built in 1791 by the area's first minister, David Goodwillie, the house is on the National Register of Historic Places and now serves as a showcase of domestic artifacts from the area's history. Linens, furniture, kitchen wares and farm tools are displayed throughout the many rooms of the house. In addition, the Goodwillie house has a hidden room in the basement which possibly was built to serve as a hiding place for run-away slaves as a stop on the Underground Railroad
If you have never visited the Goodwillie House you and your family are in for a treat. If you have, you'll want to come often to see the many improvements and changes to Barnet's treasured house.
Come see Barnet's "time machine in a house" on Saturday June 17 between 10 and 3.
