South Natick Dam Park
“The park was established in 1933 on the site of a former grist mill that had served South Natick since colonial times. The millstones embedded in the paved area come from that mill.
The park is adjacent to the Charles River’s dam and is a popular spot for visitors, both human and animal. The island in the middle of the river is named for Horace Holyoke, one of the characters from Harriet Beecher Stowe’s “Old Town Folks;” the character is based on her husband, South Natick native Calvin Stowe.” via the Natick Town Website

Deer Island, Winthrop MA
What is Deer Island, and why is it called that?
Deer Island is a peninsula off of Winthrop Massachusetts that sits in Boston Harbor, and since 1996 it’s been part of the Boston Harbor Island National Recreation Area. The island, now technically a peninsula, was named Deer Island because deer often swam over from the mainland when chased by the wolves from Boston Neck. It has a rich complex history and is currently used for a water treatment plant and recreation area.
