Silver Lake is an unincorporated village in Middlesex County, Massachusetts,[1] in the towns of Wilmington and Tewksbury.
[3] A portion of the historic Middlesex Canal runs under Lake Street, and a small pedestrian bridge named Burnap's Bridge[4] is located further up the canal.
Other natural features in the area include a forest named Silver Lake Pines, Lubbers Brook, and Mud Pond.
Silver Lake used to contain an MBTA Commuter Rail Lowell Line station, which had service until January 18, 1965.
[5] The station building was abandoned around 1943 to reduce the Boston and Maine Railroad tax bill.
