Walpole

Bird Park

TheTown of Walpole is located approximately 19 miles south of Boston and 26 miles north of Providence . The town was founded when a group of sawmill residents petitioned the annual Town Meeting of Dedham in 1721 for the privilege of becoming a separate town with their own minister. Their petition was finally approved in 1724 and the town was named in honor of the Prime Minister of England, Sir Robert Walpole. Because of the natural resources of the Great Cedar Swamp, bog iron, and the Neponset River, industry was attracted to locate early in Walpole. The community has always maintained an industrial tax base, yet due to the vast 20 square miles of beautiful land, many families find that Walpole still retains a rural charm. The Town motto is " Walpole, The Friendly Town."For more information click Town of Walpole
