About Worden Pond
Worden Pond sits in South Kingstown, in the Great Swamp country of southern Rhode Island — the largest natural freshwater lake in the state, though barely nine feet deep anywhere on it. In 1675, during King Philip's War, Roger Williams used the pond as a meeting place to negotiate with Narragansett leaders, including Queen Quaiapen. It took its name afterward from Samuel Worden, who bought the surrounding land in 1695 as part of the Pettaquamscutt purchase. The shallow water keeps it a fishing and paddling pond rather than a boating one.
