About this property
Glenfield Plantation (originally called Glencannon ) is a one-level historic antebellum home in Natchez, Mississippi. Glenfield was built in two distinct architectural periods on a British land grant originally deeded to Henry LeFluer by King George III. The original 500 acres grew to 2,000 acres working cotton plantation through various ownerships, circa 1774–1812, and 1845–1850. Glenfield was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in Mississippi in 1990.
