The 1719 William Trent House, listed on the National Register of Historic Places and a National Historic Landmark, is the oldest building in Trenton. A Georgian-style manor house restored to its former glory and carefully furnished as it would have been in the early 18th century, it is located at 15 Market Street in Trenton, adjacent to the Hughes Justice Complex. Parking is free. For more information and driving directions, visit williamtrenthouse.org, e-mail trenthouseassociation@verizon.net or call 989-0087.
