LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION

 

Located on one of the original farms, the Sewickley Heights History Center is surrounded by rolling acreage, nature trails, and scenic views. A unique collection of film, photos, and vintage attire, combined with antique cars and carriages, honors the lifestyle of Pittsburgh’s early Industrialists. 

 

The field behind the center is perfect for our family focussed British Day Out and its completely free. 

 

PARKING:

If the car park is full please park your car on Sewickley Heights Drive opposite the center. Please do not park on Glen Mitchell Road.
