Bullough’s Pond, Newton, MA

A customer on Commonwealth Ave in Newton gave Sean a great book on Bullough’s Pond in Newton.  For anyone interested in New England ecology and the connection to New England industry and settlement, Diane Muir’s book Reflections in Bullough’s Pond is riveting.  I had never heard of this book and now am grateful to have a hardcover copy.  The book is still available in paperback from University Press of New England or Amazon.com.  The book discusses many aspects of New England industry and ecology and returns to the Bullough’s Pond throughout the book.  Bullough’s Pond is located on the opposite corner of Commonwealth Ave from Newton City Hall and is bounded on the west by Walnut St, south by Commonwealth Ave, east by Bullough Park (home of some great groundhogs in the backyards of homes) and Dexter Rd to the North.
