It was at this site that early settlers first named Lexington, having heard news of the start of the Revolutionary War in Lexington, Massachusetts. Through the years, farms and industry made use of the area, which was reclaimed as public parklands in the late 1980s. Today, you'll find natural springs, mature oaks, and lush vegetation. Stone walls and foundations allude to past habitation, and trails are available for hiking and exploring. Special programs are sponsored regularly as well, and a visitors center offers informative tours.   (© 10Best)

Kind of a little nature refuge in the middle of an industrial part of Lexington. Some trails lead through the woods past some spring and ruins from days gone by.
