Iron Hill

(and a look back at the Iron Hill Museum for all of you elementary field trip veterans)

Built in an old one-room schoolhouse, the Iron Hill Museum is an overlooked quirky attraction of Newark. (yes, the petrified log is still there)

The best time to visit is coming up during their "Archaeology Days" with interpretative guides to the significance that Iron Hill played in the regional colonial iron trade. Check out their site at: http://www.ironhill-museum.org/

Of course, the park is great too. Incidentally the speed limit in the park is 15 mph.
