Oldwick Historic District, Historic district in Oldwick, New Jersey, US
Oldwick Historic District is a historic district with about 127 buildings in Tewksbury Township that spreads along several streets. The buildings include shops, an inn, homes, and religious structures from the 18th and 19th centuries.
The area developed starting in the 1740s when Ralph Smith purchased land and began settling the region. Important buildings like Zion Church were constructed during this early period.
The district displays Federal, Greek Revival, and Victorian buildings that reflect different periods of American architecture from the 19th century. These styles shape how the streets look and show how people lived across different eras.
Visitors can walk through the district to see the historic buildings, many of which are visible from the streets and accessible from outside. A map or guided walk helps locate key sites like the old church and historic homes.
The Kline Farmhouse was listed separately in 1984 even though it sits within the larger district. This farmhouse shows how individual buildings hold importance within the historic zone.
