Abstract:

Hope Plantation, in Windsor in Bertie County, was built in the early 1800s by David Stone, who was governor of North Carolina, 1808-1810. It is the state's finest example of Palladian-style architecture. Lea describes the building's history and how it was rescued and restored. Restoration on Hope began in 1965.
