Former Medfield State Hospital grounds

Highlight • Historical Site

This area is now a park and it's kind of neat to see the old buildings there. Hopefully it can get redeveloped. If you saw the New mutants in 2020 you'll recognize some buildings, especially the clock tower, as key scenes in the movie
