The Burwell School Historic Site, 319 N. Churton St., will re-opened today—Wednesday, Feb. 1—for the 2012 season. Free docent-led and self-guided tours of the buildings and grounds will resume during business hours: Wednesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m.
The site’s free docent-led tours highlight life at the Burwell School from 1837 to 1857 when it was home to the Burwell family, the enslaved members of the Burwell household and the students of the Burwell's landmark school for young women.
To learn more about tours, special events and programs offered at the Burwell School Historic Site, visit www.burwellschool.org or call (919)732-7451.
