Harrison Township Historical Society
Mullica Hill Historic Walking Tour
Five buildings. One mile of sidewalk. Two hundred and fifty years.
The five buildings on this walk stand inside the Mullica Hill Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1991. They span from a 1772 tavern built four years before the Declaration of Independence to a 1922 produce flight that lifted off from a farm field just outside town. The walk begins at the Harrison Township Historical Society's museum at Old Town Hall, 62 South Main Street, and runs along South Main and Woodstown Road.
Each stop has a yard sign with a QR code. Scan the code at the sign to read the story for that building. The tour follows a simple geographic flow: begin at the museum, cross to the corner at the Friends Meeting House, walk north up Main to the Gaunt House and the Warehouse, then turn south and finish at the Old Eagle Hotel just before the museum. The whole tour takes about an hour at a comfortable reading pace.
