Special Program Day for Essex National Heritage Area's Trails & Sails county events
Join the Park Interpreter for a FREE program. Hear how wealthy attorney Bradley Webster Palmer donated his 721-acre estate, now Bradley Palmer State Park, to the Commonwealth. Experience his extravagant early 1900s world as you take an outdoor tour of the stable, a once celebrated cathedral garden, and other surviving buildings. The walk is moderately paced for 3/4 mile. There is an uphill slope which is difficult for those with limited mobility. For ages 8 and up, especially adults.
Inclement weather cancels the program. Reasonable accommodations upon advanced request.
