Bordering Wenham Lake, J.C. Phillips Nature Preserve is an 85-acre parcel located in both Beverly and Wenham, and is open for use to Beverly residents.
J.C. Phillips Nature Preserve offers various walking, hiking and running trails, as well as opportunities to view wildlife and wildflowers.
On the property there is a tribute to Dom Manzoli, "a dedicated citizen advocate who, for over three decades, fought to protect the water quality of Wenham Lake and its watershed," according to Beverly's Open Space and Recreation Department.
