The Aberjona River flows in a north-south direction through Winchester's Town
Center, and is an important recreational, natural and cultural element to this
National Register Historic District.
In the early 1900’s, the Aberjona River through Winchester Center was stagnant
and polluted with industrial waste and sewage. To address the situation, the Town
hired Boston landscape architect Herbert J. Kellaway, a former employee of
Frederick Law Olmstead. Kellaway’s recommendations sought to improve water
quality, reduce flooding, and encourage the Town to develop its waterways and the
surrounding land for recreational use. Many of the unique features evident today
are a result of Kellaway’s plans, including Mill Pond and its transformation as a civic
center; and the Center Falls Dam at the outlet of Mill Pond with its iconic
semicircular stepped shape. The beauty of the waterways and landscapes in Town
Center have been documented by the renowned photographer and former
Winchester resident Arthur Griffin. A museum bearing his name a devoted to his
work is located on the shores of Judkins Pond.
Over the past several decades, however the key water features in the Town Center
- Mill Pond and Judkins Pond - have become overgrown with invasive species that
adversely impact the riparian habitat and aesthetics. The landscape lacks diversity
of wildlife habitat, and the pond edges are eroding in several locations. In 2016, the
Conservation Commission worked with a local landscape architect to develop a
"Landscape Master Plan" for the area around the two ponds. In spring 2018, The
Town received a grant from the state and completed a portion of the plantings
around Mill Pond.
The Town is seeking funding through this NRD grant to continue implementation of
this master plan, including the removal of invasive species and the installation of
additional native buffer plantings around Mill and Judkins Ponds. The planted
buffer will provide enhanced wildlife habitat and improve water quality by filtering
stormwater runoff before it enters the ponds. The total request is for $400,000, but
the project can easily be subdivided or phased if only a portion of the work can be
funded under the grant. While the master plan has been completed and approved
by the Conservation Commission, construction-level plans have not been
developed for the remaining portions of the work. The cost estimate includes both
design and construction fees.
