We're back!

Our docents will be available from 1 to 4 p.m. to greet our visitors and share the history of the Manor, it's people, and the local industrial history of Oxford. We are offering tours of the main floor of the building. 

The last tour begins at 3:30 p.m.

There are some changes made at Shippen that we want to make you aware of before you plan your visit.

PARKING & ACCESSIBILITY: 
There is limited accessible parking in our Belvidere Avenue lot (by the boardwalk).
Please leave two car spaces closer to the boardwalk for those who need it (there is a blue & white sign that designates those spots for those with HC accessibility tags).
For most regular museum days (that are from 1 to 4 p.m.), the back parking area will be open to the public. Please exercise caution as pedestrians also use the driveway. The driveway is a ONE WAY (except for special occasions). If the lower driveway is open when you exit the back parking, please drive slowly as there will be visitors and staff on the driveway.
For reenactment days or special event days, the back parking area and driveways will be closed to vehicles. On those days, we encourage visitors to park off-site on Washington Ave past the church or in the municipal parking area off Wall Street. Warren Co. Cultural & Heritage Affairs at Shippen Manor is not responsible if a driver receives a ticket for parking in a no parking or limited parking area. Please adhere to all signs. Also, please do not block residents’ driveways.

ENTRANCES: 
There will be two main entrances to the museum (main floor) that are identified with brown and white signs (two brown and white “Museum” signs, one marked for ADA): the “Robeson Study” is the first entrance along the boardwalk from the Belvidere Ave. parking area. “Reception Room” has an ADA accessible entrance (it is the second entrance along the boardwalk from the Belvidere Ave. parking area). If you need any assistance, please speak with one of our volunteers.

EXTERIOR BORDER & DRIVEWAY WALLS: 
Our walls are delicate and fragile due to age and in order to avoid any potential injuries to you or damage to the site, we ask that visitors (children in particular) not climb, walk or jump off of them. (This also includes the old stone stairs on our neighbors’ property near the Belvidere Ave. parking area.)
