General

Possibly designed by Nelva M. Weber, this garden was situated in a rural setting, with views of surrounding hills and fields. A large lawn leading from the porch at one end of the house was surrounded on three sides by garden borders backed by a stone wall. Accent features included a bench, arbor, and sundial. Mature trees and shrubs were featured both inside and outside the walls. The garden was featured on the 1996 House and Garden Tour sponsored by the Garden Club of Somerset Hills.
