Scope and Content

Constructed 1814. After the Aiken-Rhett House, this was John Robinson's most finely crafted Wraggborough building. Retained by his widow after Robinson's other properties were lost due to debt, the house has since generally remained as a single family residence. The 2½ story stuccoed brick dwelling with a front-facing, Neoclassical piazza features corner quoining and a cross pediment with a well-detailed lunette window. (Poston, Buildings of Charleston.) File contains newspaper articles (including 1965, 1970, 1975 DYKYC); chain-of-title (undated, unattributed) and copies of two deeds; chain-of-title (Rebecca Moffatt, 2009, ELIZABETH.048.5.9); copy of measured drawing "First Floor Plan" by Orlando Ridout, Willie Graham, and Carl Lounsbury (2003); correspondence regarding HCF's right-of-first-refusal; pages from the Aiken-Rhett House historic structures report pertaining to 10 Judith; building history from Architectural Guide to Charleston (by Simons & Thomas).
