History
2
Quarter Place at Red Hill was the grouping of living quarters for the slaves and African Americans who lived there from the 18th century until the mid-20th century, as shown on 19th century deeds and maps. The area was also an industrial site for tobacco production, with tobacco grown on the low grounds just off the east bank of the Staunton River about one mile south. Along the Quarter Place Trail are the Exhibit Cabin, Slave Cabin Foundations, Curing Barn, Ordering Pit, and the Slave and African American Cemetery.
