Manship Park is the standard small town park with a playground and a multi-purpose ball field, but for our purposes serves as a boat launch into the Quinebaug River.
A short 0.3 mile walking track goes around the ball field.
There is also short 400′ fisherman’s path along the banks of the river. There’s one nice view of the river, but really not worth exploring.
Robert N. Manship passed away in 2000. He was a World War II Navy Veteran and had a 22 year career with the Connecticut State Police from 1953-1975.
