Although this rugged hill just east of Norwood is only 188 feet, its ledges give you stupendous views of the region. To the northeast is downtown Boston, and in the foreground stands Great Blue Hill.

- Eataroundwoburn. Litchfield, NH 642 contributions. Awesome. We attended the 3 hour course. We were able to make 2 items each. Ranging from a paperweight to a large garden ball.
- Renate A. 1 contribution. Wonderful time. Loved the Tribute to David Bowie. The performers were all great. You should try and get the tribute band on Freddie Mercury.
