Westmoreland Hills Park
4.5 (53)park
4.5 (53)A neighborhood park pairing sports fields and a playground with Battery Bailey, a Civil War-era defensive earthwork.
Description
A prominent feature within the 10.1-acre grounds is Battery Bailey, a person-made hill constructed during the Civil War to support cannons aimed at protecting the reservoir of water for nearby Washington. Acquired by M-NCPPC in 1951, the park balances this history with everyday recreation, providing a softball field, multiuse field, basketball court, and two tennis courts, alongside a picnic area.
