Stage Fort Park is a park in Gloucester with a rich history. Gloucester's Visitor and Welcome Center and a reconstructed Civil War fort, Stage Fort, are both within park grounds. The park also has a playground, picnic benches, baseball fields, a dog park, and a bathhouse. There are two beaches in the park, Cressy and Half Moon Beach, stunning viewpoints, as well as a huge granite stone (with a plaque) thought to have been used by Native Americans, and cannons leftover from a Civil War-era fort. There is a privately owned seasonal restaurant, The Cupboard of Gloucester, where you can order fried clams and sandwiches.
