Mid-October 2016

October 16, 2016 by Reno

On Friday night, October 7, the society held its Gathering for 2016. This year’s event was a tribute to Photographer Roy Lee Harris. Talking about their father’s life and work was James Harris and Sherri Harris Phelps. Here are photos of some attendees.

As Hurricane Matthew went roaring past the Outer Banks, the once and present denizens of Cliffside ignored the overcast skies and celebrated the annual get-together. Marilyn Moore Kerr caught the action for this big gallery of photos.

Ever see a locomotive in pieces? Strewn all over the ground? Well, down in Bonsal, NC, our old engine 110 is being restored to its former self, and the North Carolina Train Museum staff took it apart to remove all the rust and ruin, and one day it’ll be good as new. Here are a few shots of their work.

The Cliffside Clock Tower

Our town clock was installed in 1920, and for over half a century tolled the quarter hours from atop the R. R. Haynes Memorial Building. When the building was razed in the late 1970s this new tower for the old timepiece was erected on the site of Mr. Haynes' original Cliffside home. Although the property of the county, the Cliffside Historical Society has assumed responsibility for maintaining this beloved antique.
