Hollingsworth House
Rebuilt after a fire in 1848, the Hollingsworth House has a rich and varied history. In 2025 we are trying to use grant monies to find a vendor to renovate the second floor above the kitchen so that the Foundation can interpret the second-floor enslaved quarters. If you know carpentry and Stucco, we could use your help with maintaining the outside of the building. Contact us at elklandingfoundation@gmail.com for more information.
