The Joel McLendon Cabin, circa 1760, is the oldest standing structure on its original site in Moore County. The James Bryant House was built within 20 yards of the cabin in 1820. The McLendon Cabin then served as the kitchen. Special features include two fine mantles, handmade doors and window sash, and hand-hewn pine girders and sills. Neither dwelling has been altered except for restoration.
The houses are open Sundays from 2-5 p.m. and by appointment. Call site manager Max Richardson at 910-947-3995 for information or to schedule a tour.
