Tower Avenue Park in Marshfield is a large, grassy park with a fenced-in playground, a shaded picnic area, a tee-ball field and a basketball court. It is located in Brant Rock.

Features

The playground has wood chips underfoot and features a large climbing structure, two play structures with slides, and swings. No restrooms on site, but in the summertime, there are public restrooms at the Comfort Station next to the Brant Rock Esplanade.

This land is within the region of the Massachusett (or Massachuseuk) and Wampanoag Native American tribes. To learn more about local tribes, we encourage you to interact with their members. The Mattakeeset band of the Massachusett, the Massachusett tribe at Ponkapoag, the Herring Pond Wampanoag, and the Mashpee Wampanoag also share information on their websites.

Trail Description

No trails, but ample space to walk around.

Habitats and Wildlife

This park is located within the watershed of the Green Harbor River, which finds its source in springs and ponds in Duxbury. The river twists and turns through Marshfield via Red Gold Farm, the Green Harbor Golf Club, the Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary, property owned by the Marshfield Municipal Airport and Peter Igo Park. Just downstream of the Dyke Road bridge (and dike) it flows into the Atlantic Ocean at Green Harbor.
