Step Inside South Carolina’s Drayton Hall

Exposed joists can be seen overhead in the cellar. Paint analysis on the walls in two cellar rooms found several layers of whitewash with smoke and animal fat between the layers. This is an indication that meals were being prepared in these rooms, possibly by enslaved people. This is an important discovery as the location of slave dwellings at Drayton Hall remains unknown.
