A nice pkace to take a walk. Has a stream you can sit next to. 82 ac.
Wide open spaces. Experience Willistown and enjoy the beauty of this conservation land.
We used to call this bend in the stream, The Sheep Hole. Apparently a common gathering place for hundreds of years. The "Island" in the stream slows down the water and pools on the south east side enough for a small swimming hole. Ironically this situation changed when it became publicly accessable as the Kirkwood Preserve. The creek is now overgrown and inaccessible for swimming on a hot summer day. But I can still remember.
