Glacial hills and numerous small water bodies define the landscape around North Brookfield and Oakham in this Worcester County study. The topography is dominated by prominent family-named heights such as Tufts Hill, Batcheller Hill, and Tarbell Hill, which rise above a network of wetlands like Hall Swamp and streams including Bell Brook and the Fivemile River. The region’s agricultural and early industrial legacy is visible in landmarks like the Peg Millpond and the Mass Central Trl, which follows a former rail corridor through the northern woods.
