Danville Community Center was previously known as the Danville Fire Association Hall until the Town…read morepurchased it in 2011. They made a lot of improvements to it (new secure entry doors, upgraded/updated kitchen and washrooms, etc.). They kept the rustic knotty pine panelling. Not my thing, but it warms up what would otherwise be a sterile commercial building. It's the polling place for all municipal, state and federal voting events, used by several town organizations (some committees, youth sports leagues, senior luncheons, I think guides and scouts, etc.). Town earns some revenue by renting it out for private functions. And blood drives are held here. Used to be just once a year around Christmas, but now I think Red Cross comes three times. Residents of Danville seem to be getting a good deal of use from the Community Center. Dare I say money well spent? ;)

For what it is -- a half mile or so paved riverfront path -- it is a nice spot with several entrances along Middlesex/Pleasant/Elm Streets. You can extend your own walk by going over the Main St bridge and walking along the river behind the Merrimack Street businesses. It is a good start to a good trail that will only get better as it grows. The official Team Haverhill description: "The Bradford Rail Trail is a half-mile path running along the Merrimack River between the Basiliere and the Comeau Bridges. In 2008, the City purchased the land compliments of a state grant and a donation from the Greater Haverhill Foundation. The City and the Friends of the Bradford Rail Trail, a volunteer group, created the path for pedestrians, cyclists, joggers and other non-motorized users. The Trail includes a variety of features, including benches, historical and educational markers, and a beautiful mural called "Wildlife in the Merrimack River Watershed" installed on the Arthur Sharp Building. The official opening took place on June 24, 2017. The Art Walk includes 5 sculptures along the trail for the public to enjoy."

This is one of several homes Robert Frost lived in during his lifetime. The property was lovingly…read morerestored to the appearance it had when he lived here with his wife and young children. Photos and information from his life, beginning with his parents, are in the barn and a very interesting read. On the hour, a video is played in the barn. The primary narrator is his daughter, as a grandmother, speaking with a group of elementary school children of her memories growing up here with her dad. There are also segments of Robert Frost reading his own poetry. If you are a fan, you will very much enjoy those segments. Directly after the video a tour begins in front of the barn and moves through the barn into both floors of the house. Each tour guide offers their own insights so visiting multiple times you may learn new things. They have purchased furnishings as close to those owned by the family as they could find, including dishes, wood stoves and wall paper. They also own part of Robert Frosts personal library. He had many of the 'classics' of his lifetime. Handicapped parking is available directly in front of the barn with a ramp up into the building there. The rest of us park behind the building in a dirt lot. Here you will find the entrance to a loop trail walk that includes a series of signs with Robert Frost poems along the route. The first floor of the tour is probably handicapped accessible, but the upper floor, where bedrooms are located, is not. A gravel pathway at the side of the barn leads to and from parking. A basement entrance here leads to a tool display and two restrooms. Picnic tables are located under the trees here as well. This state park is 'carry in, carry out' meaning there are no trash bins and you are expected to leave with whatever you brought. Dogs on leash are allowed outdoors. Picking up after your pet is appreciated and expected. A gift shop is located in the barn and includes new and used books of poetry, t-shirt, cards, mugs and a few other items. We spent about two hours here taking the tour, walking the property and purchasing gifts from their shop.

There were these AMAZING 70's white molded plastic egg-shaped chairs in the children's room that I can not even begin to describe. Anyone have a photo? Epic... "Mork from Ork" (early Robin Williams!) is all I can think of-Amazing! In 1994, our family finally moved to Salem & Kelly Library became a more permanent part of my life. Outstanding things happened here & I have such fond memories of peering over to "SHS" wondering what life would be like there. I lived it. I made the trek from Kelly to Salem High more than a few hundred times. I sent my very first email from this library... which led to my first concert in Los Angeles, and ultimately led to me meeting my future husband in 1998. We've been married 18 years now! I recently revisited Kelley Library & it has only changed minutely. Beautiful. No more chocolate brown restrooms. Same "books for sale section", so nice! I can still see my dear father (who died 10/3/18 ) standing in the stairwell reading a western novel waiting for my mom, my sister & me. I miss the fabulous metal sculptures that adorned the front lawn. But...they probably were not safe for us to be climbing on anyhow. Somehow, we survived.

With noise cancelling headphones, it was very quiet and a great place to get some laptop done and perhaps even write a few Yelp reviews. A beautiful building, especially the central rotunda. Many stacks of books, organized as they are in a library and a big display of periodicals. Several workstations available. I did not happen to see easily accessible power outlets near the tables. As it's the middle of a very cold winter, quite a few people in here to get warm and stay warm. There is metered street parking nearby. [Review 10485 overall, 252 of 2019.]

I had a very similar experience as "kassandra" from another review. Ive been to MANY libraries in…read moremy life, and this place, hands down, is the worst experience Ive ever had at a library. Those who work there arent exactly the most welcoming. I came to the location to do some research and spend the day at what I heard was a nice place. There was only one working toilet in the entire library for the public - which became quite awkward when I walked in on a VERY drugged up homeless woman who didnt lock the door. "Security" had a huge issue with where people sit at the desks and usage of the power strips for anything other than laptops (cell phone?! Ooh too bad, nope! Cant have that!), despite there being almost no one around in the first place other than a GIGANTIC homeless population inhabiting the fiction, teen department, and computer stations. Dont get me wrong- Im not naive to the idea that homeless people spend a lot of time at libraries and need somewhere to go. Ive spent a LOT of time at many different libraries in my life, so none of that shocks me too much. But it blew my mind my charging my phone at a charging station was much more offensive than the multiple homeless men sitting on the reading benches in the teen and fiction dept purposely watching women's asses as theyd try to browse books. Just not a welcoming, safe feeling place. Will never return. Just go to barnes and noble, they dont yell at you if you need somewhere to charge your own equipment. It smells much nicer, is much cleaner and likely 10x more safe.

I can't believe no one has reviewed this glorious establishment yet! Only kidding, I totally can…read more I have lived in Pepperell, Massachusetts my entire life, and I have to say its capacity for upward social mobility has really gained some traction over the past twenty-two years. For example, we used to have two thriving elementary schools and now we find we can function just as well using only one! Ah, budget cuts you ol' hoot! We've even had approximately four different Italian restaurants existing within the same plot over the past eight years. You say job security? I say shmob schmeshmurity--who needs it anyway? We used to not have a Subway franchise, and now we do! Check and mate. "The Depot" pizza establishment has moved around a plethora of times throughout the past decade, but what better way to keep the townsfolk on their toes? We still have a whole lot of nail salons, as always; Pepperell citizens have ranked number three in the "Best Looking Hands" category by the Princeton Review. (Just kidding. I just made that up. Please don't quote me on that.) But in all seriousness, every Independence Day we put on one HECK (pardon my strong language) of a fireworks display, and our historic covered bridge has been beautifully renovated over the past decade. We also now have a craft beer establishment, Pepperell Beverage, which has phenomenal selection and customer service. The schoolchildren really seem to enjoy the new skatepark. C&S still sells a hearty grinder. Park Street is lit. The farmer's market scene has really been growing and we have a Dunkin Donuts! I do, however, wonder but just one thing: whatever happened to that house on Prescott street by the Nissitissit River that literally just disappeared one day? You know, the one by the old schoolhouse? C'mon, I can't be the only one wondering about that. There's just a plot of empty land now. There's gotta be a conspiracy there. Anyway, for all you "Parks and Recreation" fans out there, Pepperell is literally Pawnee and Groton is literally Eagleton so therefore what we may lack in superiority we make up for in pride. We rule! Tell all your young and/or pregnant friends to move here so the youth population doesn't continue to decline. Encourage your kids to enroll in recreational sports, especially TAP basketball! Once you look past all the chilling Trump for America signs and the fact we definitely may exist atop a haunted Native American burial ground, Pepperell is a nice and welcoming town, located conveniently by tax-free New Hampshire. But seriously, that disappearing house. Where did it go?

It is nestled in between route 110 and 495 so it can get loud at times- from cars and trucks traveling near the trails. It is a nice short walk/hike with a few hills. The trails are well marked except for the trail that leads into one of the quarry kilns. If not careful one can take that trail-instead of staying on the main trail. But it is only a few feet before it becomes clear that trail ends in the quarry pit. It's easy to turn around and get back on track. In the spring there are two owls that can be heard-or seen if you spend some time looking up into the trees on the blue trail. If you're quiet the deer can also sometimes cross your path!
