Built around colonial farms and the roads linking them, Westborough grew into a Massachusetts town between Boston and Worcester. The headwaters of the Assabet River lie here, feeding a watercourse that eventually joins the Concord River, while Lake Chauncy supports walking, swimming and seasonal recreation. Incorporated in 1717 after separating from Marlborough, Westborough retains a traditional New England center alongside modern commercial areas. Westborough State Hospital, opened in 1886, is part of the town’s institutional history. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Central Massachusetts.
