Woodville Plantation Hosts Laundry Day

May 13, 2012 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm

$3 – $6

Step back in time at Woodville Plantation when this museum presents a special event.  Join Woodville Plantation’s laundress as she presents unique and interesting methods for washing and ironing clothing and linens at an 18th century plantation, including some very unusual methods for removing stains. A great way to show Mom how lucky she has it.
Woodville Plantation , the home of John and Presley Neville, is Western Pennsylvania’s link to the late 18th century. Built in 1775, this living history museum interprets life during the period of 1780-1820, the Era of the New Republic. Guided tours of the house are available every Sunday from 1 to 4 pm.

Just 7 miles and 15 minutes south of Pittsburgh, Woodville is conveniently located 1/4 mile north of Interstate I-79 Exit 55 (Kirwin Heights Exit) on Route 50, near the intersection of Thoms Run Road in Collier Township. For further directions or for more information, please visit Woodville’s website at http://www.woodvilleplantation.org or call 412-221-0348.
