Cherry Hill

When planning a trip to Cherry Hill, you can choose between historic sites and outdoor activities. Barclay Farmstead combines historic register listings with tours of the farmhouse and nature-interpretive trails. Croft Farm is a public park that is also listed in both historic registers. Bunker Hill Trails and Greenwald Park round out the options with specific trail landmarks and a cycling route.

Historic Sites in Cherry Hill

Barclay Farmstead is listed in both the National Register of Historic Places and the New Jersey Register of Historic Places. Tours of the farmhouse are offered there; visitors can also walk along nature-interpretive trails. The two activities offer different experiences: the farmhouse is the focus of the tour, while the trails combine a walk with nature interpretation. If you plan to take the tour, check the tour calendar before your visit.

Croft Farm is a public park in Cherry Hill and is also listed in both registers: the New Jersey Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places. This means Cherry Hill has two places to choose from with the same dual-register status.

Both places therefore share the same historic register status, but differ in how visitors experience them. At Barclay Farmstead, the focus is on farmhouse tours and nature-interpretive trails; Croft Farm is a public park. When comparing the two places, you can distinguish their shared historic aspect from the activity offered at each.

Trails and Activities

The main access point for Bunker Hill Trails is at the intersection of Bobwhite Drive and Blue Jay Lane. This intersection gives you a specific landmark for planning. Access information can change when facilities are modified. So check municipal information before your visit if this trailhead is important to your plans.

Greenwald Park has a 1.8-mile Watchable Wildlife Trail and a 1.2-mile bicycle path running from Grove Street to Kings Highway. Both the length and the endpoints are specified for the bicycle path. The county may update trail lengths and facilities, so check the latest park information if you are planning your visit around them.

For a direct comparison, both length and use matter: the Watchable Wildlife Trail is 0.6 miles longer than the bicycle path. The path runs for 1.2 miles between Grove Street and Kings Highway. If you want a cycling route between two named streets, the bicycle path is the option. If the longer of the two routes is what matters to you, choose the trail.
