Newcastle, we want your houses on file! We’ve been talking about doing an inventory of our older houses in a more organized manner for some time – so now, as an adjunct to our digitization project, we are asking you to help us kickstart this project.
Email us and let us know about your old house - we'll reply with instructions on submitting photos or any other detailed info!
Donations to the Newcastle Village and District Historical Society can now be made online easily and securely. Donations are tax-deductible. We use CanadaHelps to process our donations and you will be issued with a tax receipt promptly.
When the Newcastle Community Hall opened in 1923, the basement contained a banquet hall, a small jail cell, two coal furnaces and coal storage rooms.
