Property Highlights

Property is very hilly with a wooded swamp at the bottom of two hills. Access from Douglas Lane is extremely difficult because of the swamp which covers a large portion of the property.  Invasive Phragmites is abundant.  Oaks are abundant on the upper hill toward Route 85. This property is difficult to walk because of the topography.

Access

Park on the east side of Vauxhall St. Extension off the road near the power lines.  Access is gained across the street where Eversource has installed a large gate.
