Great Hope Plantation, Colonial Williamsburg Virginia

Great Hope Plantation corn bin

This corn crib at the Great Hope Plantation, Colonial Williamsburg's representation of an average farm setting during the 1770's, is one of the many agrarian exhibits on the site which also focuses on slave life.  It is in stark contrast to the massive plantations of the wealthy of the time.
