Conservation Restriction
ARNOLD PROPERTY. The Arnold Property is a privately owned parcel on which the Ashby Land Trust co-holds the Conservation Restriction. The parcel is located on New Ipswich Road on the New Hampshire line. The farm has been in the Arnold family for generations and straddles the NH border with acreage in both states. Mr. Arnold placed CR’s in both states that permanently protect the parcel with the exception of the five-acre envelope that includes the house and barn. The approximately 20 acres in Massachusetts is evenly divided between rolling fields and wooded backland offering varied habitats. This property does not have public access.
In December 2024 Mr. Arnold asked the ALT to assist in preservation of additional acreage on New Ipswich Road.
