The new stone benches near Flint’s Pond.
Thanks to the generosity of the Ory family and the help of the Lincoln Department of Public Works, some new stone benches have been placed along Lincoln trails by the Lincoln Conservation Department. The first two to be installed are in the Upper Pump House Field with views out to Flint’s Pond and across the small meadow above the pump station on Sandy Pond Road.
For those unfamiliar with this area, the trail comes from the schools, crosses the Muster Field and the Lower Pump House Field, and enters the wood to the north of the field. It goes up a small hill, crosses the Upper Pump House Field and then drops down into the pine woods behind the Carroll School. To make a full loop, you can continue to Adams Woods, exit onto Granville, cross over to Land’s End and follow the trail back to the schools.
