Moseley, Frederick Strong III.

The former Fredrick Moseley Estate was located in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Maudesleigh, as it was originally called (later it was known as Maudslay), was created on top of an existing agricultural landscape. A few of the approximately 30 structures on the property remain from the early nineteenth century. The principal architect of most of the buildings was William G. Rantoul of the Boston firm Jacques and Rantoul. He designed the 72-room main house (demolished in 1955) as well as houses for the coachman, forester, and head gardener, and several outbuildings including those in the garden complex. Most of the architectural work was done between 1895-1910. The landscape architect was Martha Brookes Hutcheson, one of the first three woman members of the American Society of Landscape Architects. The property was acquired in 1985 by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Management (DEM) and became Maudslay State Park.
