The grounds at the Roseland Cottage
illustrate the landscape theories of Andrew
Jackson Downing. The two-acres surrounding this 1846 Gothic Revival
home feature the only boxwood garden of its kind in the region. A
parterre garden, set out in 1850, is the centerpiece of the
landscape. The Roseland Cottage grounds may be enjoyed during museum
hours.
