Snowden Hall (Laurel, Maryland)

Snowden Hall is a historic house located on the grounds of the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, outside Laurel in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States.

It stands on open rolling ground approximately 3⁄4-mile west of the Patuxent River.

[2] The 260-acre (110 ha) parcel of land on which it stands was the nucleus of the Snowden family plantation.

The site is a portion of a 10,000-acre (4,000 ha) land grant from King Charles II.

The low flanking wings were built at that time using bricks from the recently purchased pre-Civil War Duvall plantation house "Gladswood" on the southern section of the research center lands.
