The Deer Park Tavern

has been a Landmark in Newark since 1851. Originally, the St. Patrick's Inn had stood in its place since 1747. Among the many travelers that used the Inn as a resting place were Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon. With their team of surveyors, the boundary between Pennsylvania and Maryland was established and became famous as a line of demarcation between free and slave states. During the American Revolution, soldiers stayed at the St. Patrick's Inn and it is stated that George Washington spent a night.
