| Foscue Plantation House |
| There are many historic sites in or near Pollocksville, such as the Foscue Plantation House located on the Trent River. This multi-story farm house served as home to the Foscue family which operated a 10,000 acre plantation operated by slave labor. It was the first brick home in Jones County on the Trent River built in 1803-04 by Simon Foscue. During the war, it was used as a hospital which accounts for the fact that it was the only plantation house left standing along Highway #17 between New Bern and Scotts Hill in Wilmington. This beautiful historic house is open for tours. |
