Hampton Plantation, Georgian plantation in Charleston County, United States.
The main house at Hampton Plantation features an exceptional temple front design with eight Doric columns and white clapboard siding overlooking Hampton Creek.
In 1791, George Washington's visit to Hampton Plantation coincided with the completion of the architectural expansion that introduced the temple front design.
South Carolina's first poet laureate, Archibald Rutledge, incorporated the plantation's heritage and natural surroundings into his literary works until 1969.
The plantation offers guided mansion tours at noon and 2 p.m. from Friday through Tuesday, with grounds admission free and house tours priced at $10.
The Enslaved Settlement Trail presents the narratives of rice cultivation and post-emancipation life through informative displays along the walking path.
