Parrott Bacot, former director of the Anglo-American Art Museum at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, led the interior restoration.[5] The several outbuildings surrounding the main structure are furnished with Federal, Sheraton, and Empire pieces.[6] The Milk House was built between 1820 and 1830; dairy products, such as cheese, milk, and butter, were prepared and stored there.[4] The Slave Cabin shows the primitive conditions in which the slaves at the plantation lived.[4] The Blacksmith Shop was constructed about 1815.
