Medway Plantation

Location: Mount Holly, South Carolina off U.S. Route 52

Medway Plantation is located in the Mount Holly community which is between Goose Creek and Charleston South Carolina.  The plantation was added to the National Register of Historic places back in 1970.  The plantation house was built back in the later 1600's by a small group of settlers from Holland.  Medway was a active plantation during the winter and summer months.  Rice was the main focus during the summer months and brick making following during the winter months.  Medway today has been set up in a Environmental Trust by Gertrude Sanford Legendre which ensures the preservation of the plantation.
