Hancock Field

Location and Setting

Located on Pearl Street in Brockton, Massachusetts, Hancock Field offers a refreshing pocket of greenery within the city's urban landscape. This 1.8-acre park isn't massive, but has a nice neighborhood charm.

The park has a convenient location. Need a quick snack or drink? You're in luck - there are corner stores nearby, and you can even grab a slice from the pizza shop right across the street when hunger strikes during your visit.

Park Amenities

Hancock Field offers several amenities for locals and visitors. The well-maintained grassy areas provide perfect spots to throw down a blanket, enjoy a casual picnic, or simply relax with a good book on a nice day.

If you've got kids in tow, they'll appreciate the dedicated playground area where they can burn off energy while you take a breather on one of the nearby benches. These features make the park a nice spot for the neighborhood.

You won't need to plan an expedition to get here either - its central Brockton location makes it easily accessible whether you're walking from nearby homes or stopping by from other parts of town.

Recreational Opportunities

Hancock Field offers both active recreation and relaxation spaces. The layout thoughtfully balances areas for active play with quieter spaces for relaxation.

The basketball court features glass backboards - nicer than what's typically found at neighborhood parks. Just remember to bring your water bottle and maybe a hat, as shade can be limited when the sun's beating down.

As a true neighborhood park, Hancock Field doesn't try to be something it's not. Instead, it excels at being that convenient outdoor retreat where local residents can escape for a few hours without venturing far from home.
