The Beverly Heritage Center will host special tours of Beverly’s “hidden spaces” and historic preservation projects at 1 p,m, on April 10 and April 24. Visitors will have a one-of-a-kind opportunity to see the inside of Beverly’s Civil War amputation site, the 1841 Randolph County Jail and early Civil War graffiti.
“Historic preservation is a very expensive process with lots of variables that need to be prioritized” said Dr. Christopher Mielke, Executive Director of the Beverly Heritage Convention and Visitors Bureau. “Our hope with this tour is to showcase a variety of historic preservation projects focusing on several of Beverly’s historic buildings in varying states of restoration.”
