Bob visits the Glen Magna Farm in Danvers, Massachusetts, with Kathy Gianoulos from the Danvers Historical Society. Owned by the Endicott family since the late 1800's, it was named after the Endicott family's ancestral birthplace in England. First stop on the tour is the summerhouse, built in 1793 by Samuel Macintyre. The exterior of the house is designed to look like masonry work, although it is actually wood construction. The back of the house features a beautiful rose garden, which is a faithful reproduction of the original. Next Bob and Gianoulos tour the Italian 8 garden, a Mediterranean style garden restored in the 1980's. The garden features a magnificent pergola, supported by marble columns that were purchased in the 1930's for $5 a piece. The estate's main house has also been faithfully restored, including the West Wing, which remains the oldest surviving area of the home.
