Roberts Park is a well-known and highly regarded green bounded by Park Avenue, Tunxis Avenue, Wintonbury Avenue, and the Wintonbury Mall. Not as well-known is a smaller rectangular area, southwest of Roberts Park at the corner of Tunxis Avenue and Park Road. This greensward abuts the Roberts House, a brick structure built in 1822.

No embellishments have been added to the space, with the exception of a bus stop, a cedar tree in the middle, and a few perennials. A dense hemlock hedge defines the western boundary of the area. It is not clear whether the two parks were ever connected, but today they function as two separate entities.

Roberts Park is an oblong space with a circular bituminous path in the center. The green can be entered by three wide (22') walks. The entrance walks extend from Wintonbury Avenue, Tunxis Street, and Park Avenue. Each of the three entries are paved with a combination of concrete and brick panels. Benches line the edges of each entry and ornamental lampposts are in the center of each. Walks leading from the east end of the green connect to the Wintonbury Mall. A walk from the northeast edge of the circular walk leads to the public walk along Wintonbury Avenue. There are four war monuments and a sculpture adorning the green. At the southwest corner is the World War I Roll of Honor, a handsome cobblestone structure inset with a bronze plaque and eagle. The Roll of Honor was dedicated at the Connecticut Tricentennial Celebration on September 20, 1935.

At the northwest corner of the green is the World War II Memorial, a large boulder with a bronze plaque. The Korean War Memorial is located inside the center walk, toward the northeast edge. An upright granite slab is engraved with the names of Bloomfield's Korean War veterans. On each side of the memorial is a bench. The Korean War Memorial is the newest monument to be added to the green. Due south of the Korean War Memorial is the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, a black polished granite shaft with engraved names. The square shaft rests on a round base. This memorial was added in 1985.

Near the center of the green is the Drummer Boy statue, created by Professor Wolfgang Behl, a member of the faculty of the University of Hartford. The statue was dedicated on the Bicentennial of the United States, July 4, 1976, and commemorates the Brown Drum Factory, where percussion instruments were once manufactured.

There are many mature specimen trees on the green, most of which were probably planted at the turn of the century by the Village Improvement Association. Several large shrub groupings also embellish the area: yew, juniper, rhododendron, and mountain laurel.

Surrounding the green is a mix of municipal, residential, and commercial buildings, which include:

1. Bloomfield Town Hall: Built in 1960, this Colonial Revival building is on Park Avenue, south of Roberts Park. The Methodist Church Meeting House was taken down to make room for the Town Hall.

2. Prosser Library: On the west side of the green, this modern building was erected in 1963 to replace an earlier library and town hall structure that had been erected in 1903. From 1790 to 1878 the site was the location of the Brown and Griffin Tavern. The tavern, noted for its genial hospitality, was headquarters for the stagecoach line to Tariffville.

3. Congregational Church: Just north of Roberts Park, the church was built in 1858 at a cost of $11,000. It is the third church to stand on this spot. An addition was built in 1951.

4. Wintonbury Mall: Built in 1970, this modern strip shopping center abuts Roberts Park at the Eastern boundary. The Whitenhouse carriage shop and Rowley House, both built in 1843, previously occupied the site. The Rowley House at various times housed a village store, a post office, and a private school.

Today Roberts Park is the physical and psychological "heart" of Bloomfield.
