Waveland State Historic Site

We need to start by telling you about a crucial mistake we made about before our visit to Waveland’s State Historic Site. We had read about their Tuesday afternoon teas, but did not call in advance enough to get a reservation. When we visited, we got to enjoy the buildings and lovely gardens – but missed our opportunity for tea inside the mansion. If you love a tasty petit four, then you know tea is always a good thing. 

Waveland is a state historic site located in southern Lexington. Known historically as the Joseph Bryan Estate, it includes the original 1848 Greek Revival mansion and three outbuildings – slave quarters, a smokehouse, and an ice house.
