Check out our beautiful Pocket Guide!

Visitors to the estate can now pick up a copy a beautiful “Pocket Guide to the Wakefield Estate” at the kiosk located to the left of the lane near the entrance. The Pocket Guide is a wonderfully informative combo brochure/map, designed to read easily as it opens origami-style to reveal a helpful map inside. A larger color version of the Pocket Guide is posted on the two sides of the kiosk, while black-and-white copies are supplied in weather-resistant pockets for use by guests during their visit. The guide was created by Maggie Redfern, graduate of the Landscape Institute, as part of a report entitled, “Maryfield: A Preservation Plan for the Mary M. B. Wakefield Estate.” The report was the final product of her 2011-12 independent studio of the Landscape Institute of the Boston Architectural College and can be read in its entirety at the Arnold Arboretum Library.
