New Durham was an unincorporated community and now a neighborhood located within Edison in Middlesex County, New Jersey, United States,[2][3] south of Dismal Swamp.

New Durham Road

Along with Piscatawaytown, Bonhamtown, New Dover and Stelton, New Durham is one of the older historical crossroad communities established in Edison (either as once part of Piscataway or Woodbridge before the establishment of Raritan Township, as Edison was earlier known).[4][5] It was described in 1834 as having a tavern, a store, and a half-dozen dwellings.[6]
