The pre antebellum and post antebellum structures are key to understanding Southern heritage. Many thanks for documenting the highs and lows! (Cornwallis being the very lowest).
A gorgeous house. It's British Army/ Yankee Army woes reminds me of a beautiful spot in Beaufort, SC, Sheldon Church. Just ruins now, but still evocative, it was burned by the British Army during the Revolution, rebuilt and then burned again by Union army arsonists. (I asked my wife to marry me in there, 33 years ago.)
Yes, Sheldon Church has a parallel story. It's a beautiful place, even in ruins. I came through there the week before the security fence was installed a few years ago and was able to photograph it without the fence. So glad I was able to do that.
