Temple Hall (Loudoun County, Virginia)

Cultural and Institutional Buildings

Temple Hall is an early 19th century Federal style mansion in Loudoun County, Virginia, north of Leesburg near the Potomac River, built in 1810 for William Temple Thomson Mason, a nephew of George Mason. The house is a Flemish bond brick building with a five bay facade and a hipped roof, featuring a Doric portico with a semicircular fanlight over the entrance, tall six over six windows and interior end chimneys. Today the 286 acre property is a working farm and interpretive center operated by the Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority, which has managed the estate since Mrs. Symington donated it in 1985 to protect it from development pressure in the growing county.
