New Castle Kentucky
"I have got to the age now where I can see how short a time we have to be
here....there are moments when the heart is generous,
and then it knows that for better or worse
our lives are woven together here, one with one another..." --Wendell Berry, Jayber Crow

Holiday Festival 2011: a few photos and a Wish for a Happy Holiday!
|
The view from this Henry County "seat" hasn't changed much in 200 years. Local traditions linger , even with Louisville just 35 minutes down the road. New Castle (pop. 919) is one of the smallest towns in Kentucky certified in both “Renaissance on Main” and “Preserve America” programs; we tend to our town with the same grit and teamwork it takes to farm. Nothing fancy here--a busy courthouse square, a few characters and a lot of lawyers (15 at last count.). Thank you Kentucky Heritage Council for funding this website and helping our Main Street program (based on the "4-Points" of Organization, Design, Promotion and Economic Restructuring.) |
