Trails & Sails 2026 – The Port of Ipswich
September 12 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Join Ipswich’s Scott Jewell for a fascinating in-depth walking tour of the Old Ipswich Port. Discover its history as a hub of maritime trade and commerce, and how its fate was tied to the rise and fall of Ipswich’s 18th century economy, and the fortunes/misfortunes of many of its residents.
Be sure to wear comfortable “walking” shoes, bring appropriate weather gear, bug spray and hat. This is an outdoor walking tour.
The tour leaves the Heard House Museum at 1:00PM sharp. It will last approx. 2 hours.
Parking is available at The Heard House Museum, and in the public parking lot next door.
Free Admission.
