Terrace of Hyde Hall

Glimmerglass State Park, East Springfield, New York

One of the standard features of the natural English landscape is the main house standing on a terrace that highlights the house and opens distant views to the occupants. George Clarke (1768-1835) modified the terrace at Hyde Hall by cutting into Mt. Wellington and expanding a small natural plateau on the site.
