Line Farm is a working agricultural landscape. A nine acre hayfield surrounds the house which once served as the haybarn for the property. A large pond interrupts the stone wall that separates the field from the five acre lower pasture. There is an island in the middle of the pond. The upper pasture, also five acres, is accessed by a farm road through the hayfield that climbs up past the old sugarhouse. The height of land, about 850', commands a view east southeast down the Ottauquechee Valley. Jersey heifers graze in the pastures. They are curious and will likely gather when sculptures are being installed. Because of the cows, no dogs are allowed on the site. The land is bounded by streams, woods, the Cloudland Road and the Woodstock / Pomfret town line, hence the place name.
