The site contains the Campbell-Christie House, built 1774, plus other historic buildings. This ride should only be done with a small group. There’s a high-traffic intersection where you make a left turn from New Bridge onto Main (mile 26.6) plus another stretch of high-traffic road getting from the historic site to Bogert Rd. Call Bergen County Division of Historic Affairs in advance (201-336-7267).
