Historic Hunter Valley township Morpeth is set to commemorate its bicentenary with a weekend of activities on 19 and 20 November.
In addition to serving as the backdrop for the spectacular fireworks display on the Saturday evening, Morpeth's iconic 1898 timber truss bridge will be closed to traffic on the Sunday for a free all-ages open day. The bridge will be decked out in picnic tables, astroturf and planter boxes for visitors to enjoy a unique vantage point of the river and the town from the deck of the 1898 timber crossing.
Pack your own picnic or pick up lunch from one of Morpeth's popular eateries, which will be selling grazing platters, slider boxes, and sandwich boxes.
