The Glebe House is located on one of the oldest streets in Woodbury. It is interpreted during the years from 1771-1786 when the Marshall family and their three enslaved persons lived in the house. Guided tours tell the story of the daily life of this family during the Revolutionary War. The period furnishings include regional pieces and many made in Woodbury. The historic garden surrounding the house was designed by Gertrude Jekyll, the renowned English landscape designer and is her only surving garden design in the United States. The gift shop offers a selection of books, as well as garden and history related gifts. Plants from the garden are also available during the growing season. Holiday gift ideas are available for Halloween and Christmas at select events during the season.
