22 Acres Preserved in West Amwell, Hunterdon County

This is a beautiful part of the state. Continued preservation efforts can only help keep it that way.


Information provided by D&R Greenway Land Trust newsletter (www.drgreenway.org):

  • Preserved in a 50% bargain sale in honor of the owner's parents, who had owned the land.
  • Located on Barry Road in West Amwell Township, just east of a major concentration of D&R Greenway-preserved land.
  • Primarily wooded with young successional forest on the east side and older woodland on the west side.
  • Protects forested headwaters of the Moores Creek.
  • Provides opportunities for public trails near the existing Dry Run Creek and Rockhopper Trails.
  • West Amwell will own and manage the land for recreation and conservation purposes.
