John Parker Tavern, Historic tavern in Bernardsville, US.
The John Parker Tavern features a gable roof, one-and-a-half-story structure, and a full-length portico at 2 Morristown Road in Bernardsville.
During the American Revolutionary War, Continental Army soldiers gathered at this tavern, which served as a strategic meeting point for military operations.
The building transformed from a tavern to the Bernardsville Public Library in 1903, maintaining its role as a central community establishment.
The structure received modifications in 1903 with a rear addition and in 1969 with a two-story expansion to accommodate changing functional requirements.
British spy Aaron Wilde, operating under the alias Dr. Byram, frequented the tavern before his eventual capture and execution.
