McClean House--Appomatox

[White Flint Bill]

Here are a few shots I took at the McClean house at Appomattox a couple of weeks ago.

The parlor. The tables are not originals, but this is where the surrender occurred (see painting below)

Another set of great photos. Love all these older historic homes. So glad it is so well preserved.

It always surprises me how simply decorated these homes are, compared with many Victorian homes. Very nice indeed.

If you get a chance it's worth it to see the surrender site.

We visited there in 2015. Beautiful place and area. If I remember correctly the guide told us the McLean house is a reproduction not the original building.
I think he said it got moved from there to DC and ended up being stored or got weathered and had to be replicated.

Did y'all hear that too?

Not to hijack the thread but in a similar vein so is the Barbera Fretchie house. In that it isn't original also.
