Emerson Park

 

This park located between the Souhegan River and the US Post Office is about one and one-half acres in size. Emerson Park is lit at night and has easy handicapped access. It contains park benches, a stone wall, a permanent sandbox for children, and an old millstone as a "table", a gift form the late Theodore Langdell.

 
The undeveloped land was given to the town at the 1947 Town Meeting by Charles S. Emerson as a gift from his brother, the late Harry Emerson. In 1969, with a $1,000 gift from the children of the late Charles Emerson, creation of the park began.

The Sounds of the Souhegan summer concert series is held here, weather permitting.
