Welwyn Preserve

Welwyn Preserve County Park is a 204-acre (0.83 km2) public nature reserve in Glen Cove, on the North Shore of Long Island in the U.S. state of New York.

The Welwyn estate also includes woodland and other natural habitats, as well as part of the coast facing north onto Long Island Sound.

Welwyn was originally the estate of Harold Irving Pratt, an American oil industrialist and philanthropist who was born in 1877, and died at Glen Cove in 1939.

[1] Welwyn includes the estate's original Georgian-style mansion, which was built in 1906, and was designed by Babb, Cook & Willard.

[2] Pratt's wife, Harriet, was an avid horticulturist, leading to the installation of numerous greenhouses on the grounds as well as a luxury garden adjacent to the western side of the main home.
