From This Old House.

The Newbury house homeowner found a bamboo fishing rod that was hidden in the wall when the house was built. That spurred the curiosity to learn more about the history of the house. We take the homeowners to The Museum of Old Newbury where historian Bethany Groff Dorau explains, who the previous owners were, how they were part of the industry of this seaside community and the revitalization of Newburyport.
