Morris Canal Bread Lock Park is open daily until dusk, but the Warren County History Museum is open the second Sunday of the month from 1-4 p.m. Lock 7 West near New Village was known as "Bread Lock" because the store at the end of the lock sold goods to the boatmen, including homemade bread and pies. In the museum you will find models and displays of County history with emphasis on the Morris Canal, Shippen Manor, Oxford Furnace and Lenape Indians.
