Story.
Orton Plantation is a rice plantation antedating the formation of the United States. It is located on the west bank of the Cape Fear River, downstream from Wilmington, NC. It was purchased last year by a new owner who closed it to public access and apparently is intent on restoring it. I fortunately got to see it last year not long before it closed, it was beautiful. It's sad to think that people won't be able to visit it anymore, if that is the new owner's intention.
Anyway, there was an auction of items that belonged to the house. Here are photos.
