The Chapman-Hall House Historic Site is holding its annual yard sale on Saturday, Aug. 26 from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at 22 Lewis Point Road, Damariscotta. A large and varied selection of antiques, vintage and new items have been assembled for your shopping enjoyment. This sale benefits the work of preserving and maintaining the Chapman-Hall House, as well as supporting its educational outreach work.
In 1970, the Chapman-Hall House was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. When it was constructed, almost 270 years ago, the Main Street of Damariscotta did not exist. Both the Nathaniel Chapman Family and the Tilden Hall Family watched many changes take place right from their front door.
During the summer months the House is open for tours on Saturdays and Sundays from noon to 4 p.m.. The Chapman-Hall House is one of three historic sites under the care of the Lincoln County Historical Association. The Lincoln County Historical Association is a nonprofit organization that provides stewardship for the 1754 Chapman-Hall House, the 1761 Pownalborough Court House in Dresden, and the 1811 Old Jail and Museum in Wiscasset.
