Description
A pre-restoration view of Tazewell Hall at the end of South England Street with the Mary Cary House to the right, Williamsburg, Virginia.
Constructed in the mid-eighteenth-century and originally serving as the home of John Randolph, the home was once located on the southern axis of the town's plan on England Street in the approximate location of today's Williamsburg Lodge, The McMurran family purchased and dismantled the home in the early 1950s when the Lodge expanded. In 1964, they began reconstructing it on Riverside Drive in Newport News where it still stands today.
