Morris
County Towns: Harding Twp.
|
Harding
Township is a picturesque community with gentle rolling
hills and numerous estates.
It is about 30% undeveloped and is approximately 25
miles west of Manhattan.
In
1727 one John Lindsley acquired a 1250 acre tract of land
which marked the center geographically and politically of
the area that was to become Harding Township two centuries
later. Harding
Township was one of the last municipalities formed in
Morris County separating from Passaic Township in 1922,
but its lands where some of the first to be settled.
The 18th century inhabitants were
English or New England born and their houses reflected
those building traditions.
During the Revolutionary War, Washington’s troops
encamped at Jockey Hollow during the bitter winter of
1779-80. By
the end of the 19th century, the unspoiled
rural area became the site of numerous magnificent
estates. Harding
was named by its republican founder for the then
President, Warren G. Harding.
Development was kept to a minimum for the next 50
years. Numerous
historical buildings are still evident in the gentle,
rolling hills of this picturesque community.
The township is also noted for its bridle paths and
horse farms. On
the west and south, Harding includes most of the acreage
found in the Great Swamp Wildlife Refuge.
Also located within the township’s limits are
portions of two Morris County Parks, a year round lake
community and a lake for resident skating in winter.
