Junction with State 33-Imlaystown-Fillmore; unnumbered roads.
This route, following a zigzag course southward through one of the
best-ordered sections of New Jersey dairy country, is highly recommended
or those who wish to see a part of the State untouched by tourists, with
few spots of more than ordinary historic interest that, unsung and unadvertised, will probably not survive many years. It is an area of millponds, but no factories; of dirt roads, but no railways; and of amazingly
large barns and solid frame houses, but practically never a bungalow.
The junction of the dirt road with State 33, 0 miles (see Tour 20), is at
the Monmouth-Middlesex County Line, identified by a metal sign on
State 33, 9 miles west of Freehold and 4.7 miles east of Hightstown.
Through fairly level farming lands the narrow dirt road runs S. Lone
cedars mark field boundaries; occasional clumps of silver birches lighten
the woodland stretches in the leafless months.
At 2.2 miles, at the junction with a macadam road, stands a typically handsome farmhouse (R), a low frame building with white clapboards and
with simple white posts supporting the porch roof.
The route continues L. on the macadam road.
Junction with State 33 to Fillmore, 13.9 miles.
Macadamized and graded dirt roads; latter soft and slippery in wet weather.
Restaurant in Clarksburg.
