Waterfeature added at Chinqua Penn Plantation, Reidsville, NC:
My Pond Store adds a beautiful low maintenance waterfeature at Chinqua Penn Plantation, Reidsville North Carolina, to aid in filtering the existing two waterfeatures on the grounds.
Tucked away off the winding roads near Reidsville NC, is an American architectural gem known as the Chinqua Penn Plantation. Built in the 1920's for prominent businessman and farmer Thomas Jefferson Penn and wife, Beatrice, the sprawling estate is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been featrued on the A&E Channell series, "American Castles."
The plantation is anchored by a 27-room English countyside mansion filled with rare and elaborate furnishings from 30 countries, many of which the Penns acquired while traveling the world. It is surrounded by 22 acres of gardens and historic landscape, and it recently re-opened to public tours.
"The grounds are spectacular and the level of architectural and design detail was a huge draw," explains Lisa Phelps, who bought the house in 2006 with her husband, businessman Calvin Phelps.
Bruce Berry, Watergarden Specialist and Sr. Designer at My Pond Store was challanged to add filtration to the two existing ponds on the estate while making it appear to have been their since the early 40's. After searching many stone quaries in NC and VA we found the stone and boulders for the waterfeature project. It took 54 tons of stone and boulders and a total of 9 working days to meet the deadline for the project. The added waterfeature is 20' x 30' and included a 50' stream.
