Westford’s covered bridge is over 160 years old and is one of the town’s most precious landmarks. In the late 1980’s the bridge needed restoration work and through a community effort it was restored.

THINGS TO DO

Mills Riverside Park is in both Jericho and Underhill and provides space for outdoor sporting events, as well as walking, hiking, and skiing trails through its forest.

Westford takes pride in its agriculture and farming and holds traditional farmer’s markets every Friday night during the summer months on the town common, a great place to connect with people while enjoying locally grown products.

Winter in Westford is never a dull moment, with Smugglers’ Notch within a thirty-minute drive and an outdoor skating rink in the center of town there are plenty of activities for your family.
