Battersea, Historic plantation house in Prairieville, Alabama, US.

Battersea is a historic plantation house in Prairieville, Alabama, built between 1820 and 1845 by the Vaughan family, who came from Petersburg, Virginia. The property later served as an early stagecoach stop, and in 1994 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district.

Battersea was built between 1820 and 1845 by the Vaughan family, who came from Petersburg, Virginia. The house served as an early stagecoach stop in Prairieville, Alabama. On July 7, 1994, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district, part of the Plantation Houses of the Alabama Canebrake and Their Associated Outbuildings submission.

Battersea takes its name from the Vaughan family's Virginia origins, and the house served travellers as an early stagecoach stop on the road through Prairieville. The property is listed as part of the Plantation Houses of the Alabama Canebrake and Their Associated Outbuildings Multiple Property Submission, a group of documents recording the region's plantation buildings and outbuildings.

Battersea stands in Prairieville, in Hale County, Alabama, not in Gallion. The house is a private property on the rural road network of the Alabama Canebrake; the sources give no visitor entrance, opening times or roadside viewing point, so plan on seeing it only from public roads and do not enter the grounds.

Battersea was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 7, 1994, as part of the Plantation Houses of the Alabama Canebrake and Their Associated Outbuildings Multiple Property Submission, a group nomination covering plantation houses and outbuildings in the region.
