About Powder House Pond
Location: Downtown Exeter. See map on right. The street next to the bridge is Pleasant Street. When coming south on Portsmouth Avenue (NH-108), you can avoid congestion near the Main Street bridge by turning right on Green Hill Road at the Walgreens store, go 1 block, turn left on Jady Hill Circle, go 1 block, where it makes a sharp right turn, go 3 blocks, make a left onto Jady Hill Avenue and follow it until it ends at the pond.

Target birds: Waterfowl, during migration. Marsh Wren, sparrows, vireos and warblers along Powderhouse side and along the river trail. Description: A trail runs around the pond and between the pond and the Exeter River. Takes 10 or 15 minutes to walk the loop. On the loop trail, near the dam, another trail goes north along the Squamscott River for about 1/4 mile through shrubs to a small pond. The trail is heavily lined with poison ivy. The pond is small and usually completely covered in algae. There are several bird boxes in the transitional meadow adjacent to the river trail.
