This park has approximately 60 acres of scenic woodland surrounding Transylvania Pond. Janie Grey Pierce taught school for many years in a one room schoolhouse in South Britain. At her request, the land has been kept in its natural state. Nature trails, benches and picnic areas overlook the pond. Fishing, hiking & non-motorized boating are all permitted. Cooking & fires are permitted only in the grills provided. Dogs are allowed in this park but they must be on a leash.
