MADISON — The Upper Saco Valley Land Trust has announced its most recent land conservation project — a conservation easement protecting 77 acres in Madison, donated to the organization by longtime land trust supporters Robert and Priscilla Dannies.

The 77-acre property is located on Glines Hill and Bickford Roads, both designated as scenic roads by the town of Madison, and includes thousands of feet of natural, undeveloped road frontage for the scenic enjoyment of anyone travelling these roads. At the headwaters of Forest Brook and within the town’s groundwater protection district, the property is now permanently protected from development, which might otherwise downgrade the water quality of the Forest Brook watershed.
