Duke Estate



At the the Duke Estate you can do a self-guided Walk on the Wild Side. When you are there it is like you are in another world.  Rte. 206 is close by but you would never know it. All you hear are the sounds of birds and small animals and the rustle of the leaves in the trees. The only sign of the outside world that I saw while I was there was a plane flying overhead. These pictures were taken on a beautiful day in October 2007.


On the property is a hay barn. To me it looks more like a run down castle but I guess even the Duke's hay had to be stored elegantly. Only the walls are standing now. Doris Duke had statues placed within.
