A few weeks ago, we attended MHT's Listen Up! 2022

A few weeks ago, we attended MHT's Listen Up! 2022 Historic Preservation Conference & Heritage Awards. It was such a great time in Raymond – "Mississippi's best-kept secret" – a city with so much character and charm. We were also so pleased to see some of our clients awarded Heritage Awards for rehabilitating and saving important places in MS.

Huge thank you to @msheritage for their continued dedication to historic preservation. Our state is stronger because of its efforts!

To wrap up #PreservationMonth, below is a 3D rendering of the Lollar's Grove schoolhouse in Webster County, Mississippi. The schoolhouse has been neglected for many years. Recently, our team measured the remaining structure and created a realistic rendering for instructional purposes on historic/vernacular architecture at a local high school.

Constructed in 1927, this charming two-room red schoolhouse served the Lollar's Grove community in Webster County. Before then, local children attended school at Lollar's Grove Baptist Church. Attendance varied but averaged around 25-40 children at any given time. There was usually only one teacher, but a principal or assistant was also occasionally employed. After only seven years of use, community members went to the Webster County School Board and requested consolidation after considering the "many advantages of the school children in Mathiston Con. School District over the advantages of the school children in the Lollar's Grove School District…." At this request, the schoolhouse ceased operations in 1934 and consolidated with Mathiston. Lollar's Grove School was one of the last rural schools operating in Webster County and was used as a home and hay barn in its later years.

Past & Present: Historic image* of the Billiard Hall at Auburn in Natchez, Mississippi, built circa 1840 as a recreational outbuilding for the main house. The hall is “one of three surviving examples in the Natchez area of a free-standing building originally used as a billiard hall for a private estate (MDAH Database).” Swipe to see its current state during a recent visit, and stay tuned for restoration updates! #PreservationMonth
