Raynham Hall Museum - (516) 922-6808

Home of George Washington's secret agent Robert Townsend, Raynham Hall is a time capsule of Long Island life in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Raynham Hall was for 200 years the home of the Townsends of Oyster Bay -- merchants, slave owners, Patriots, civic leaders. One of the sons of the family, Robert Townsend, posed as a Loyalist in Manhattan and relayed vital intelligence to George Washington, helping the Patriots win the Revolutionary War.
