This park is the green space between the Beverly Depot and the Beverly Post Office. Odell Park is generally used for passive recreation. Veterans have added appropriate memorial plaques and flagpoles. It has citywide use and is in a prime location between the post office and the Beverly Depot, the city’s central train station.
The former Moseley family estate on the Merrimack River, this park features 19th century gardens and plantings, rolling meadows, towering pines, and one of the largest naturally-occurring stands of mountain laurel in Massachusetts. Most breathtaking are the ornamental trees and masses of azaleas and rhododendrons that bloom in May and June. An exquisite place for walking, biking, horseback riding and informal picnics. Special Use Permits may be obtained for wedding ceremonies and similar programs.
The Long Hill Flower Fields need volunteers to help with the PYO flower programs and to staff their booth at the Beverly Farmers' Market. Teens and adults can fulfill their community service obligation with these programs. Come volunteer at this beautiful location and help preserve a wonderful community resource!
