Ames Nowell State Park, Natural reserve with trails and Cleveland Pond in Abington, Massachusetts.
Ames Nowell State Park spans 700 acres of forest with 10 miles of trails surrounding Cleveland Pond, offering diverse walking and cycling paths.
The land contained a sawmill and grist mill in the 1700s until Edwin Holmes acquired it in the 1920s to create Cleveland Pond for industrial purposes.
Stone walls throughout the park reveal its agricultural past, while the native Massachusett tribe considered this area as Manamooskeagin, meaning great green place.
The park provides facilities including parking areas, restrooms, a pavilion, picnic spots with grills, ball fields, and two boardwalks near the water.
Cleveland Pond, formed by damming Beaver Brook, connects to a water system flowing through Abington and Bridgewater before reaching the Taunton River.
