Allen Ave Reserve

pond at Allen Ave Reserve

Location

South of the intersection of Allen Ave and N Wheaton Ave, Seekonk, MA

Size

8 acres

This 8-acre property is undeveloped woodland with wooded swamp and a stream that runs approximately north-south down the center. The northern portion of the property is dominated by a rock outcrop known locally as Indian Rock. A short trail into the property ends at a bench with a view of a ponded area within a red maple swamp. Future plans include monitoring the wetland for vernal pool potential and investigating Indian Rock for any cultural history.

With the help of volunteers, we removed many dumped tires and other trash from the property in 2005.
