Places to stay in Wellington, Kansas
Wellington was first surveyed on April 4, 1871 and named for the Duke of Wellington. It was designated as the permanent seat of Sumner County in 1872, winning over competitor Sumner City. Trading with cattlemen moving their herds up the Chisholm Trail was an important factor in the early economy of the town. Places to eat in the region include McDonald’s, Casey’s General Store, Taco Bell, and Wellingtons Steak House.
If you are travelling in the area, Wellington is located close to Dublin (historical), Friendly Second Baptist Church, Badger Creek Oil Field, Oxford Friendship Center and Hargis Creek.
Today, Wellington is still fortunate in its access to transportation facilities; it is served by Interstate 35, Highways US 81 & US 160, the UP and BN & SF railroads and an excellent airport. This area produces vast quantities of winter wheat, with wheat still the driving force behind the local economy. The Railroads and petroleum are also significant, while manufacturing, especially aircraft parts, is continually growing.
