Birthplace

 

Birthplace: Middleton Place NHL, 4300 Ashley River Road, Charleston, SC

Visited: 10/27/18

Log Excerpt: "Headed north, joining the Ashley River Road NSB, to Middleton Place NHL (in the NHC), arriving right at opening. Built in the 18th and 19th centuries, the plantation was the primary residence of several generations of the prominent Middleton family. We walked around the beautiful landscaped grounds and gardens, unfortunately not super impressive given the weather and lack of flowers in the fall. Still, it was quite enjoyable. While on the walk we found the crypt including Arthur Middleton, Signer of the Declaration. At 10:00 we got on a tour of the guest house museum, the main plantation house having been burned in the Civil War. The tour was quite good, with an informative guide in the beautifully restored and decorated rooms."
