Built in 1835 and enlarged in 1850, the McNair plantation is rare and beloved for its distinct "dog trot" architecture. This architecture was prominent in Mississippi through the entire 19th century. It has a double-pile plan which substitutes an open breezeway for the central passage as a method for the long hot days of that era. The dwelling is a one-story frame structure covered with clapboard and set upon a native stone foundation.
