Closeup of remains of fountain. It just appears on extreme right side of the previous photo above. Meudon William Guthrie estate, demolished -A grand replica of Meudon palace in France, this palatial stone mansion once sat high atop terraced hills overlooking Long Island Sound. The wrought iron fencing which surrounded this once magnificent example of gold coast extravagance, now encloses numerous private homes. A few clues to what was once here still exist.
Huge trees line the approach to a grand stone staircase, and further on, a balustrade rail.
At the top of these stairs, where once stood a palace, is a modern contemporary home. The most striking remnant is almost overlooked. High atop a hill, stands what appears to be a partial facade of the mansion, a lintel supported by Tuscan columns. What once would have been a terraced, landscaped slope leading to this facade, is now just a heavily wooded hill. Remains of Meudon.
