Abstract:
Located in Bertie County, four miles west of Windsor, Hope Plantation offers glimpses of late 18th- and 19th-century in eastern North Carolina as well as the life of its original owner, former North Carolina governor David Stone. The plantation’s centerpiece is the 1803 mansion, an architectural combination of Federal and Georgian architecture. June 14 is Hope Plantation’s 200th birthday and a special event will feature stories from descendants and former plantation residents.
