Features

Habitats and Wildlife
This mostly-grassy property has some scattered maple, sassafras, pine and oak trees.
The Scituate Skatepark is located within the watershed of First Herring Brook, which finds its source in Scituate in the area west of Route 3A, between First Parish Road and Old Oaken Bucket Road. It flows through the First Herring Brook Reservoir, and downstream to Old Oaken Bucket Pond, passing through two dams. Below the historic Stockbridge Grist Mill, at the Driftway, it flows into Herring River, a major tributary to the North River. Herring River flows into the North River just upstream of its outlet to the sea.
