Explore our town with two gentle walking tours with local Award Winning Historian and Author, Robert Burcher.
Tapestry Walk of Clarksburg
Sunday May 22, 2 - 3.30 pm
Robert will show us the story of water power that built the bustling village in the 1800s. Dams, mills and industry hidden before our eyes, and now recreated into a thriving arts community.
Tapestry Walk of Thornbury
Sunday, May 29, 2 - 3.30 pm
Walk the Georgian Trail with Robert and learn about the very early days of lake shipping, and the coming of the railway that allowed our apple industry to take off. We will see how the former railway line influenced the town and how tourism is changing the current face of the town.
