BETRAYAL IN BERLIN by STEVE VOGEL
Betrayal in Berlin tells the true story of the Berlin Tunnel, the audacious American-British cold war operation to dig a tunnel into East Berlin in order to intercept Soviet secrets, and the operation's betrayal by the dangerous British spy, George Blake.
TOWN FACILITIES
The Town of Barnesville owns and maintains two properties that serve the community. These facilities are used for public events and in the case of the town hall can be rented for private functions. Barnesville’s Master Plan calls for the town to remain a “rural village” in appearance and function and these facilities are central to that effort.
BARNESVILLE TOWN HALL
The Barnesville Town Hall was donated to the town in 2003 and renovated in 2008. It was partially funded by a historic preservation grant from the Maryland Historical Trust. The building includes a versatile meeting room with a stage and a projection screen and a small office and storage area for the town. The meeting room is available to rent. Click below for rental rules and application forms. The availability of the space can be determined by sending an email to the town clerk at clerk.bmd@gmail.com.
LILLARD'S CORNER
The Phase 1 improvements to our pocket park are almost complete. In 2020 the fencing, hardscaping of the patio area, planting of shrubs and trees and addition of the monument sign are being completed. We hope that wildlife and the town’s residents will start to use the park over the winter and in the coming year.
​
With the involvement of the community and the town’s Beautification and Sustainable Barnesville committees, the park has been designed to be enjoyed by the town’s residents while creating a habitat for native plants and wildlife.
