Attilo Valati Nature Park

Rivers
and
foundations
The Attilo Valati Nature Park is a small park that was donated by the Valati family in 1989. I’m not sure exactly how large it is because the boundaries aren’t clearly marked but it can’t be more than a couple of acres.
The park does have a small stream running through it and some enigmatic foundations and ruins scattered about. There were actually quite a few remains of various things but they were difficult to see because of all the leaves and debris.
I couldn’t find out much about the park or what was there before the park but I suspect it was some old mill that used the river as a power source to power a water wheel that is long gone. This part of MA had lots of mills in the 19^th century.
And interesting if small place to explore and relax. It would be nice if more information about the history of the land was available.
