TRIP's Review of Historic Brattonsville

Historic Brattonsville is a living history village located on 720 acres in York County.

It was a primary location for the filming of the movie The Patriot, and features more than 29 historic buildings that bring to life the Carolina Piedmont from the 1750s through the 1840s.

Visitors to the site can explore the original homestead, a home built in the early 1820s by physician John Bratton, his wife Harriet, and their 14 children.

Other structures on the grounds—some of which are original buildings and some of which are reproductions—include the oldest home in all of York County, built in 1776, as well as cabins, barns, slave quarters, and a smokehouse.

Historic Brattonsville also features historic farming exhibitions and rare breeds of livestock.
