Governor Hutchinson's Field, Public field space in Milton, United States.
Governor Hutchinson's Field extends across a grassy area with paths providing views toward the Neponset River salt marshes in Massachusetts.
The field belonged to Thomas Hutchinson, the last colonial governor of Massachusetts, who established his country estate on this property in 1734.
The field demonstrates the landscape preferences of wealthy Boston merchants who selected Milton for their residences during the early 1800s.
Visitors can access the field from Adams Street at Milton Hill, which serves as the only public entry point to the adjacent Pierce Reservation.
The property maintains an original ha-ha, consisting of a brick wall and sloping ditch designed to control cattle while remaining invisible from the estate.
