The Massachusetts Department of Public Health has announced earlier this week that they have closed three Hingham Beaches due to concerns over water quality.

Kimball, Belair and North Hingham Beaches were all shutdown on Wednesday.

The water quality is tested weekly.  The results from the tests showed that the North Hingham Beach had the highest rate of bacteria of all the Hingham Beaches closed.
