A small impoundment on the Ten Mile River created by a town-owned dam off Witherell Place. The town's 2019 assessment found the dam in poor condition, losing material to bank erosion, and stated the property has no potential for accessible conservation or recreation activity in its current state.
What to expect
Dogs
On Plainville conservation land a dog has to be under its owner's control at all times, and must not dig, damage the land, or go after wildlife or plants. That's the town-wide default; watch for posted signs here.
Hours
Conservation land and its parking areas are open dawn to dusk, and parking after dusk is prohibited. Posted hours at the entrance win if they differ.
