Chesterfield Gorge



Day 8 - 3.2 miles
The road winds into Chesterfield, past the Chesterfield Gorge. The Trustees of Reservations have maintained this site for a long time -- it's a beautiful place to hike. The British Redcoats apparently marched back to Boston over this gorge when the old post road ran over a bridge over the gorge. The roads open up here from the woods of Worthington into more open pasture land (used to be a lot of sheep grazing out here) and into colonial/federal buildings. It's an interesting contrast

Here's a link to the gorge from the road
