“The History of Stone Walls in New England”

Archaeological geologist Robert Thorson of the University of Connecticut  -- the author of several books on stone walls and the co-founder of the Stone Wall Initiative, which supports the appreciation and preservation of historic walls -- will share his passion for these rocky works of art at this Westborough Historical Society program. His presentation will feature many beautiful photos of New England’s most interesting stone walls. Originally from the upper Midwest, Professor Thorson spent time in Alaska and on the West Coast before arriving in New England in 1984. His lecture is sponsored by a generous grant from the Westborough Civic Club.

Snow date:  Monday, March 5,  7 p.m., Forbes Municipal Building Auditorium, 45 West Main Street.

All Society programs are free and open to the public.
