Heirloom Gardens at the Greenwich Historical Society, Schools Heavy Registration (1926), Prince of Wales Visits-Sort of

Welcome to the 18th of August 2026 Show

About this episode

I was out on one of my daily Heart Health Hiking excursions when I ventured by the heirloom gardens of the Greenwich Historical Society’s Bush Holley House campus. When Greenwich’s public schools returned to session a century ago, there was a heavy increase in enrollment-with 5,000 students in 1926 alone. In 1926, the Prince of Wales (who later as King would abdicate the British throne)caught a glimpse of the town from the waters near the Indian Harbor Yacht Club. We'll have news of crimes, accidents, and so much more as our history continues to unfold.
