Habitats and Wildlife

This park is situated within the watershed of Stump Brook. Stump Pond, nearby, was created when the only natural outlet from Monponsett Pond, known as Stump Brook or Herring Brook, was dammed for water power. Stump Brook flows to Robbins Pond in Halifax, a source of the Satucket River. The Satucket is a significant headwater tributary to the Taunton River.
