Coffin Point Plantation, Historic plantation in Frogmore, South Carolina, US
The plantation house stands on St. Helena Island with a foundation made of tabby, a regional construction material of oyster shells and lime.
Established in 1801 by Ebenezer Coffin, the plantation expanded to hold 260 enslaved individuals by 1862 during the American Civil War period.
The property represents the agricultural and social structures of South Carolina's Sea Islands, connected to the development of Gullah traditions.
Visitors can access the plantation through a half-mile oak-lined avenue that extends from the main entrance to the historic house.
The plantation spans 22 acres and includes architectural elements that demonstrate the building techniques of early 19th-century coastal South Carolina.
