Geocache Description:



Discover Newburgh in L&A County Passport

Discover Newburgh in L&A County

The community of Newburgh in Stone Mills Township was first settled in 1822.  It was once known as "Rogues Hollow", but the name was changed to make it sound more respectable.  At one time, Newburgh was bustling with numerous mills lining the Napanee River. It was so active that at one time it had almost become the largest town in Lennox & Addington County.  However, a series of devastating fires ended that possibility.  Today, Newburgh is a peaceful hamlet with beautiful stone and red brick homes dotting the landscape.
