The Rogers Dell conservation property is owned by the Town of Andover Conservation Commission. It is 0.7 acres. This property is open to the public. There are no trails on the property.[1] The property deed was donated by prominent Central Street resident, Mary Byers Smith to the Andover Village Improvement Society in 1933. Article 29 of the March 1960 Annual Town Meeting proposed that the Town of Andover receive the parcel of land as a gift from A.V.I.S.. The measure passed, passing official stewardship of the parcel to the Town of Andover.[2]
In 1984, 83 year old Andover resident, Louise Van Everan spearheaded a local committee to clean up the dumping ground on the property. She was awarded a plaque by the Andover Conservation Commission and the Appalachian Mountain Club's Boston Chapter for her work.[3]
