Ardsley Historical Society Walking Tours
In Honor of Ardsley's 125th Anniversary
On four weekend days in September (9/18 & 19 and 9/25 & 26) the Ardsley Historical Society will be offering guided walking tours through the heart of the village (as described below). The tours will begin at the Firehouse and last approximately 60-75 minutes, depending upon the number of questions people ask. Participants will be given binders containing photographs to refer to throughout the tour. While there will be no charge for the tour, we do ask that you register in advance using the link below:
Take a step back in time and learn what life was like in the early days of Ardsley. Follow experienced guides as they lead you on a walking tour along Ashford Avenue and then Saw Mill River Road, stopping along the way at major landmarks in the history of the village. Tour participants will share binders that contain photographs of these landmarks as they appeared many years ago. You will be able to see how the following landmarks have changed over the years: Fire Department, Village Hall, Library, Addyman Square, Post Office. Other landmarks no longer exist, but you will be able to see where they used to be located: Ardsley Lyceum, Blacksmith Shop/Livery, Pickle Factories, Ardsley Train Station.
