  • Lake Sunapee Byway Corridor Management Plan (PDF, 1.6
    Corridor Management Plan for the Lake Sunapee Byway Formally Adopted September 9, 2010 Prepared by the Lake Sunapee Byway Committee With technical assistance from Upper Valley Lake Sunapee Regional Planning Commission With funding from Federal Highway Administration through the National Scenic Byway Program, administered through the New Hampshire Department of Transportation EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Lake Sunapee Scenic and Cultural Byway is a driving route around Lake Sunapee in the towns of Newbury, New London, and Sunapee, New Hampshire. The Lake Sunapee Byway is one of seventeen designated routes in the New Hampshire Scenic and Cultural Byways Program, consisting of roadways that exemplify unique cultural, historical, recreational, scenic and natural features in the State. The goal of the Lake Sunapee Byway Corridor Management Plan is to recognize, preserve, and enhance the character of the Byway and its resources. The Lake Sunapee Byway Committee is tasked with preparing a vision for the byway and creating and implementing a Corridor Management Plan to achieve that vision. The vision for the Lake Sunapee Byway is as follows: The Lake Sunapee Byway welcomes travelers seeking alternatives to the beaten path, linking several villages, each with a unique connection to the history and culture of the Lake Sunapee region. The 39-mile route encircles Lake Sunapee, connecting visitors to vibrant communities and natural scenery. The lakes, mountains, and forests offer striking vistas and a multitude of recreational opportunities. In the village centers, history and modern-day culture converge, where old buildings are adapted for new uses and the traditions of yesteryear are still observed. The Lake Sunapee Byway reflects the best of New England tradition, recognizing and protecting the qualities that make this region unique.

  • Draft Dated: May 20, 2007
    Final Draft for Public Hearing on April 1, 2008 CHAPTER V - HISTORIC PRESERVATION Newbury has a long and rich history parts of which are still evident today in the historic buildings and sites still existing within the town. There are not many of these historic buildings and sites still remaining in the town so it is important to retain as much as possible of what remains. These historic features reflect the persons and events which help to define Newbury as a community. They provide a valuable link to the past and, as such, should be preserved for the benefit of future generations. As a community grows and develops, a gradual erosion of its historical character can happen as incremental changes to or elimination of historical buildings and sites accumulate. It is evident from the results of the community survey that historical preservation is a very important issue for the residents of Newbury. Identifying the important historical resources to preserve in Newbury and planning how to accomplish preservation of these resources is critical to retaining these resources for the enjoyment of current and future residents. The purpose of this chapter is to highlight some of the important historic buildings and sites to preserve in Newbury, to provide a brief description of their historical significance, to describe tools and techniques to preserve these historic resources and to provide recommendations for the preservation of these resources. BRIEF HISTORY OF NEWBURY Newbury went through several name changes in its early years. The first grant in 1753 was named “Dantzic,” after a Baltic seaport, but this grant failed since it was never settled.
