The Short Take

Middletown Village At A Glance

Middletown Village, in central Middletown Township, is the nucleus of the township's first settlement and one of the oldest permanent English settlements in New Jersey. The first land purchase was by a deed dated January 25, 1664. Most of the 99 properties in the village historic district cluster along Kings Highway and Red Hill Road, between Township Hall and Spruce Drive on the east and Holland Road on the west. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
