Bradley Estate
Once a colonial farmstead known as Cherry Hill Farm, the Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate was transformed into an early twentieth-century country estate. with landscaped grounds, and a complex of farm and estate buildings, manicured lawns, a walled garden, and a brick-edged garden. Fifteen acres were set aside as open fields and pastures to preserve a part of the property's rural past.
Beyond the formal landscape, visitors may explore more than sixty acres of meadow and woodland along three miles of trails. A favorite spot in the woodland is a dell where paperbark maple, umbrella pine, dawn redwood, and devil's walking stick flourish.
