I parked the van here and explored, enjoying this park and then taking a nice walk down the hill to the covered bridge. It's a lovely town square with very pretty and lush grass, a number of picnic tables and a pretty bandstand.
The marker reads, "The Square was part of town founder Roswell King's original town plan and is the center of the Roswell Historic District. The District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. President Theodore Roosevelt visited Roswell, his mother's girlhood home, in 1905 and addressed the citizens of Roswell from a bandstand on the Square."
Street parking the far side is next to an outlet so it was great to be able to plug in the battery and do some charging while I explored.
While there are no public restrooms or other facilities here, it's a pretty park and a nice stop. There are a number of spots nearby to shop and eat. Lovely.
