Built circa 1847 as the homestead of William Thomas Lenoir, the plantation was continuously owned and farmed by the Lenoir family until its sale in August 2000. The Lenoir home is the only Classical Revival style house in Mississippi. On February 21, 1864, Colonel George E. Waring Jr. was halted here by a body of Confederate cavalrymen. After repelling the skirmishers, Colonel Waring moved his men on to Okolona.
