This beautiful conservation area has an entrance on Clark Hill Road adjacent to Lot 1 at the eastern edge of the Clark Hill Woods property. There is also an entrance on Briar Hill Road with a small parking lot.
The property is maintained to provide habitat for wildlife and to preserve open space. Through volunteer effort, a trail was built through the area. This area consists of gently rolling slopes. Wooded and open areas provide opportunities for all seasonal activity including snowshoeing, x-country skiing, hiking, and skating.

What is Sustainable Design?
It is helpful to understand what terms like “Sustainable Design,” Energy-Efficiency,” and “Green” mean. It is also key to understand what “green washing” is. There are a lot of misunderstandings about these terms and there seem to be a range of definitions thrown around, depending on who you are speaking with. (more…)

What Makes Clark Hill Woods Unique?
We have gone to considerable lengths to preserve the character of the area and have done selective forestry management to enhance the health and beauty of all of the wooded areas that make up the majority each lot.
- Located animal trails on the property; designed lots so as to allow these to remain with little or no disturbance
- Selectively removed some trees to improve overall health of forested areas, allowing more sunlight to reach the forest floor, make walking, hiking, or cross-country skiing easier, and provide the ability to orient each home so it can benefit from passive solar warmth with no increase in building costs (more…)

Is There Anything Special About New Boston?
- Central Elementary School (one of the top elementary schools in the State of NH)
- Town established in 1736; Incorporated in 1763
- Piscataquog Land Conservancy has its home in New Boston
- White Water Rafting
- Hillsborough County Agricultural Fair
- Central School, New Boston, NH
- Whitewater Rafting, New Boston Area
(ABOVE) A technical Class II paddle through forests and historic New Boston. A regular on the New Hampshire AMC’s early-spring trip list, the South Branch of the Piscataquog River is a fun paddle with plenty of rocks to dodge on its way to a wavy twist through the center of New Boston. It is a small river that must be run in March or early April when the water is high enough to float a kayak or canoe. There is one small dam that requires a short portage about a third of the way through the trip, but the dam in the center of New Boston has been breached and is easily runnable in high water.
