South County Museum Tour  http://www.southcountymuseum.org/

Guided tours include themed buildings − Carpentry Shop, Blacksmith Forge, One-Room  Schoolhouse and the Carriage Barn.  

Come to the South County Museum, where Rhode Island’s coastal legacy has been celebrated since 1933. Here you can explore a rich heritage of rural and coastal life. Our beautiful seven-acre campus is in a 174-acre town park that was the 19th-century estate of Rhode Island’s Civil War-era governor and postwar senator, William Sprague.

Explore history in the one-room schoolhouse, carriage barn and carpentry shop. Watch artisans at work in the blacksmith shop and print shop. Wander through the Canonchet Estate stable ruins, visit the Rhode Island Red heritage flock and our other farm animals. Our grounds feature heirloom flower and herb gardens, and they are bounded by woods, meadows, and salt marshes accessible on marked walking trails.

You are welcome to stay and explore after the tour and bring a picnic lunch to enjoy on the property.

Cost: $7 per person  (2 and under are free)
