Bocage Plantation, plantation house in Darrow, Louisiana, United States

Bocage Plantation is a two-story house on Louisiana Highway 942 in Darrow, Ascension Parish. Its pale yellow facade rises above a red brick lower level, with a wide portico of six smooth white columns across the center and two at each outer end; dark green shutters frame the windows behind them. A white staircase with railings climbs to a glass-paneled entrance door under a hanging lantern, and two brick chimneys stand on the roof.

Bocage Plantation was established in January 1801 as a wedding gift from planter Marius Pons Bringier to his 14-year-old daughter Francoise on her marriage to Christophe Colomb. The original raised Creole house burned by 1837, and the present Greek Revival house was built that year, with its design attributed to James H. Dakin. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 20, 1991.

The house's upper gallery appears as Shaw Farm in the 2013 film 12 Years a Slave, and the property was also a setting for the 1974 film The Autobiography of Ms. Jane Pittman. The name Bocage is French for hedge-lined wooded countryside, fitting a plantation laid out along the Mississippi River Road.

Bocage Plantation stands on Louisiana Highway 942 along the River Road in Darrow, on the east bank of the Mississippi across from Donaldsonville and about 25 miles southeast of Baton Rouge. The house has been closed to visitors since 2015, when Dr. Marion Rundell shut it permanently, so it cannot be toured; the facade and its columns are seen from the road.

The upper gallery appears in the 2013 film 12 Years a Slave, standing in for Shaw Farm; the 1974 television film The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman was also shot here. The front staircase is a 2008 reconstruction, rebuilt from an early 20th-century watercolour of the house.
