After 135 years, it is pretty hard to imagine the intersection of Main Street at Church Hill Road and West Street without the 100-foot steel flagpole the currently makes its home in the middle of that major roadway. Newtown Woman’s Club, GFWC, Inc is continuing its “This Place Matters” series with a look this month at the flagpole, a historic landmark that has been included in countless photographs, drawings, paintings and other artistic entities for generations. Woman’s Club members Anna Wiedemann, left, and JoAnn Bruno are seen in front of the pole recently, with vehicular traffic negotiating its way around the town treasure in the background. (Hicks photo)
