Conservation easement donated by Thomas and Georgia Gosnell
in 2006. Simultaneously they donated the underlying land to

to create the Gosnell Big Woods Preserve. Partners in the
permanent protection of the larger parcel include the Town
of Webster and the Trust for Public Land. |

The Town is developing a master plan for the entire preserve.
Walking trails have been established into the Big Woods. A
parking lot is located at the corner of Vosburgh and Drumm
at the edge of the big field. Trails begin at this point and
lead into Big Woods. |
