The public is invited to a free walking tour in the Cheney historic district on Saturday June 15,  2024 at 1:00 p.m. The one-and-a-quarter-hour walk starts at 146 Hartford Road, Manchester, and will proceed along streets and lawn to view the exterior of historic mansions, with a visit to the nine acres purchased by the Town of Manchester in 2005 for open space and historic preservation. Hosts Tom Ferguson and Susan Barlow, members of the Cheney district commission, will comment on the historic landscape and buildings. There is some steep and uneven ground, so participants should wear sturdy shoes or boots. Extreme weather cancels, but the walk will be held in light rain, so please bring an umbrella.
