Cathance Mill Walking Tour

Led by James Tanzer

Against the stunning backdrop of Topsham’s Cathance River, learn the stories of the fascinating people–both enslaved and free–who lived and labored around the double-sawmill at the “head of the tide” in the last half of the 18th century. Hear how petty infighting, unspeakable loss, deep-seated resilience, and quiet grace marked the lives of those who called this place home.

The program takes place at Head of Tide Park in Topsham, at 235 Cathance Road. This is a casual outdoor presentation that stays inside the park. Feel free to bring a lunch or snack to enjoy while you learn about this fascinating history.
