Scituate and the surrounding coastline of Plymouth County are defined by a complex interface of glacial landforms and tidal wetlands. The series of distinctive drumlins known as First Cliff, Second Cliff, Third Cliff, and Fourth Cliff stand as prominent landmarks along the Atlantic shore, shielding extensive salt marshes like the Scituate Harbor Marshes and North River Marshes. This landscape preserves a deep record of early settlement, with numerous burial grounds such as Union Cem, St Marys Cem, and the Men of Kent Cem situated near the historic town center and Greenbush.
