Overview
Bell Rock Memorial Park is a public park between Main, Wigglesworth, Meridan, and Ellis Streets. The west side of the park is the site of the two earliest Congregational meeting houses in Malden (First Meeting House (1649 to 1658) and Second Meeting House (1660 to 1730)). The park also has an American Civil War memorial statue "The Flag Defenders" by Bela Pratt and a World War II memorial. The park was laid out in 1910 by Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
