The Oxford Historical Society will present holiday tours of the Twitchell- Rowland Homestead from 2-4 p.m. on Sundays, December 7 and 21. The Museum is located at 60 Towner Lane, off Route 67 in Oxford. The 1755 saltbox will be decorated for the season by the Oxford Garden Club. Recalling the cold and dark that the early families living in the house endured, a special display is on offer that features 17 th and 18 th century lighting devices that would have brightened their evenings and allowed them to continue their day’s work. Titled “Lights in the Winter Nights,”” the display is from the collection of Oxford Historical Society President Rob Buck.
Admission is free and tours will be offered.
