Ernest Souza Parcel

More protection for the Fresh Pond well in Waquoit came with the acquisition in 2001 of 9.1 acres on Carriage Shop Road. Owned by Ernest Souza, the property is in the zone of contribution to the town well. The parcel links to the Cape Cod Beagle Club’s 148 acres and is west of the Falmouth Rod & Gun Club’s 102 acres. Both properties are protected with conservation restrictions.

The Falmouth Rod & Gun Club and the Falmouth Skeet Club contributed to the town’s purchase of the Souza property.
