Local Legends

Quabbin Reservoir Drowned Towns

Belchertown, MA

Beneath the Quabbin Reservoir lie four Massachusetts towns — Dana, Enfield, Greenwich and Prescott — disincorporated and flooded in the 1930s for Boston's water. Their cellar holes edge the shores, their dead were moved, and valley telling keeps their bells.
