Scope and Content A large neoclassical house stands within a large formal topiary garden. Steps lead up to the columned porch and there is a forest of chimney stacks and a small turret on the roof. Dense woods lie beyond. A walled raised walkway overlooks the garden in the foreground. There is a wooden summer house by the lawn on right and a terrace with stone summer houses connects with the house on the left.
