Weir River is a short stream and estuary that empties into Hingham Bay, part of Boston Harbor in Massachusetts, United States. The name is attributed to the location of a fishing weir in the stream.[1] The river gives its name to a larger watershed and Weir River Farm, a park and nature reserve owned by The Trustees of Reservations.[2][3]
