Springfield Plantation House, Historic plantation house in Fort Mill, South Carolina, United States.

The two-story white weatherboard structure features eight Ionic columns supporting a one-story porch, with gable roofs and brick corbeled chimneys on both ends.

Springfield Plantation House, constructed between 1790 and 1806 by John Springs III, hosted President Jefferson Davis and Confederate cabinet officers during their retreat in April 1865.

The National Register of Historic Places listed property represents the architectural evolution of Southern plantation homes through its original construction and subsequent modifications.

The house contains modern amenities including electricity, plumbing, and central heat, added during the 1946 renovation by Elliot White Springs.

The oldest wood-frame house in Fort Mill originally encompassed 3,200 acres and underwent extensive remodeling in the 1850s by architect Jacob Graves of Columbia.
