About Warners Pond
Warners Pond was created in the 1800’s when Nashoba Brook was dammed to generate power for a mill. Warner’s Pond came under the jurisdiction of the Town of Concord. The Pond does not fit the description of a “great pond." Great ponds are natural, not constructed, larger than 10 acres, and come under the jurisdiction of the State of Massachusetts. Warners Pond covers 54+- acres, including 3 islands and is shallow, 12 feet depth, average 4.5 feet. There is a considerable accumulation of soft sediment on the pond bottom. These sediments are rich in nutrients and provide an excellent medium for the nuisance levels of aquatic plant growth that are plaguing the pond. Sediment and nutrient deposition have likely occurred at an accelerated rate due to the sizeable watershed that extends into several neighboring towns.

There are 35 residences along shorelines, set back generally more than 100 feet from the pond, few homes have lawns that extend to pond’s edge. From Friends of Warners Pond website
