Montague Land
In 2024, Acton voted in Town Meeting (Article 20 of the 2024 Warrant) to accepted a gift of approximately four acres of land surrounded by the Great Hill Conservation Land from the current owner of 38 Piper Rd., William Montague, with a portion of the land conveyed as a gift, and the remaining acreage conveyed upon death.
The area behind the houses was mostly a meadow which was left to grow over starting in the early 2000s. It now has lots of Asian Bittersweet, Bush Honeysuckle, and Multiflora Rose.
Aside from an attempt in 2021, 2022 and 2023 to cut large vines within 50ft. on either side of the rock wall marking the border, this hasn't been addressed.
Downed trees were starting to make walking the old border (rock wall) difficult in 2024.
