In 1851, Newbury came into existence with the introduction of the Great
Western Railway. No other part of the county better symbolizes small
town living with all the amenities of a big city, than this village. Located
where Concession Drive intersects Hagerty Road, it is home to the Four
Counties Health Services facility. As an important player in the Middlesex
Hospital Alliance, it promotes patient-driven, family-oriented health
care for Middlesex County and three adjoining counties. Due to a strong
commitment to the community and its preservation, this family-routed
village continues to grow and prosper. Although a village of less than
500 residents, it aptly sustains itself. The ample shopping offered exceeds
the expectations and needs of both residents and visitors alike. It has
three churches (two are more than 100 years old) and a historic village
library. On the border of the village is an eco-wonder known as Skunk’s
Misery. As a matter of pride, benches lining the main street are adorned
with skunk caricatures. These benches offer visitors a place to sit and
observe the day-to-day life of Newbury. It’s beautiful park has a baseball
diamond, tennis courts, horseshoe pit and a large pavilion for family
reunions or picnics. Nature lovers will be delighted by a visit to the county
owned woodlot. It is just outside the village limits and has several marked
walking trails. This community so small in population is one of the largest
when it comes to heart. The many community events, local services and pride
taken in all it has to offer, definitely make Newbury a place to visit and
appreciate. |
