Mansfield |
|
The prospering
community of Mansfield grew up around the Man and Feild
mill, taking on a combination of the names of the founders
Ralph Man and Julian Feild. Man and Field arrived in 1856
to begin a grist mill in a little settlement about twenty
miles southeast of Fort Worth. The city boasts a variety of
premium athletic and recreational parks including four
state-of-the-art sports venues that provide facilities for
organized sports leagues, eight parks and nine lighted
athletic fields available to the public. |
