Pequot Woods is comprised of 140 acres filled with idyllic streams, wetlands and a network of gentle well-marked trails.
In 1637, a battle was fought only a short distance away from what is now Pequot Woods. In this battle, a force of colonists joined Mohegan and Narragansett tribes and attacked a Mystic fort of the widely feared Pequot tribe. After their attack, the colonists and their allies retreated through these woods. A vicious battle continued as they fought their way westward. Artifacts from that encounter are still being cataloged today.
