Review:

Redcliffe Plantation State Historic Site is a 369-acre cotton plantation built in 1859 for James Henry Hammond, congressman, governor and senator, three generations of his descendants, and numerous slaves who worked and lived in Redcliffe. The plantation is today open to the public. The opulent, beautifully restored Greek revival plantation house is now a house museum with original furniture and more than 4,000 artifacts. Visitors can have a guided tour of the mansion, two slave cabins, and magnificent lane of magnolia trees planted in 1860. The plantation is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is operated by the South Carolina State Park Service.
