leading to The Big House.
The estate still has a row of nine 18th-century brick slave cabins.
The proximity of the slave quarters along the road to The Big House
and the expensive brick construction
of the slave cabins
indicates that Captain Thomas Boone was displaying
his wealth and status to other planters as they rode up to the main
house.
Here is one of the slave
cabins.
The (cotton) gin house (now a gift shop!) is also still standing.
