Bedford Historic District


Passing through Bedford, New York, I came across signs for a historic district.  

The district is organized around a big triangular green dating back to 1680. 

 
A sturdy stone school building from 1829 stands at the south end of the green.  

It looks across a street to a handsome stone church, St. Patrick's Catholic Church.

An 1872 Presbyterian church is at the north end of the green.

And a handsome house sits above a stone wall.

I wish I had more time to investigate the historic district.  Maybe another time.

How amazing to find a town's historic district dating into the 17th Century. Those are building constructed to last.

It all looks very clean.
