Mr. Shaw-Rimmington presented a plan to rescue the historic dry stone walls of Ferris Park to members of Friends of Ferris Park, at the Aron Cinema, in Campbellford.
CAMPBELLFORD -- Work will get underway this spring to rescue long-forgotten 'walls of history' in Ferris Park, on the town's southern doorstep.
The dry stone walls visible throughout the 500-acre park are more than 100 years old, but they are showing their age. "There are miles of walls in the park, but some of them have collapsed and many stones have been stolen," said Barb Hogan, chair of the Friends of Ferris Park.
