Photo Caption: "Oatlands," A National Historic Landmark and National Trust for Historic Preservation property, is significant for its architecture and landscape gardening. While keeping much of the intent of George Carter's original English style garden, a subsequent owner, Mrs. William Corcoran Eustis, was responsible for creating the existing formal garden. Historic photographs, such as this 1930s view of "Oatlands," are helpful in determining and evaluating the impact of more recent changes.
