(November, 2002) Gibbet Hill Farm, begun in 1948 as an angus breeding farm, is one of the few remaining premier angus farms in New England. It had been managed by Bill Conley for over 50 years and had attained renown through its world-class, angus breeding program. The farm is now managed by Larry Porter. The farm lies on 280 acres of rolling hills (drumlins) in Groton, Massachusetts and has a considerable history.
The farm consists of two separate farms that have been merged and are now managed as a single farm. In addition to the main farm, Gibbet Hill Farm, a second farm, Angus Hills -- also sometimes known as Gibbet Hill Farm II -- is also used for both grazing and haying.
There are farm houses on each of these properties which are rented.
On top of one of the drumlins making up the farm lies the state managed "fire tower" and the town run "water reservoir". Recently, a cell tower serving most of Groton has been erected near these facilities and became operation in early 2003.
