Dungeness, Historic district and plantation in St. Marys, United States.
The Dungeness district contains a neoclassical mansion with columned porticos, situated among gardens with specimen trees near the Georgia coast.
General Nathanael Greene constructed the original Dungeness residence in 1784 as his retirement home, which later became a substantial plantation estate.
The property reflects the architectural influences of early American colonial design, incorporating both neoclassical and Greek elements in its construction.
Visitors can access the Dungeness ruins through authorized ferry services departing from St. Marys, with guided tours available by advance reservation.
The estate employed over 300 workers during its peak operation under Thomas Carnegie's ownership in the late nineteenth century.
