Split Rock Conservation Area
About Split Rock Conservation Area
The family of the late Edna Cann honored her memory by conserving 150 acres, named the Split Rock Conservation Area, that surround the family home in Brookfield.
The wide variety of wildlife observed on the property corroborates the designation of this land as some of the State’s highest ranked habitat by NH Fish & Game’s Wildlife Action Plan. The conservation significance of this parcel is enhanced by its shared boundary with the 190-acre Warren Brook Conservation Easement, an area protected by Lake Wentworth Watershed Association in the summer of 2016. The combined 340 acres provide even more protected space for roaming wildlife and greater watershed protection for Lake Wentworth. The Split Rock Conservation Area easement allows for managed forestry to improve the health of the forest and wildlife habitat.
