Ayr Mount Historic Site and Poet's Walk

Ayr Mount Historic Site and Poet's Walk is at 376 St. Mary's Rd. Scottish merchant William Kirkland built the brick 1815 plantation house, which contains a Federal-period collection of furniture, porcelain and crystal. Of interest is a set of North Carolina etchings by Louis Orr. The “Poet's Walk” is a 1-mile trail that winds through landscaped grounds, woodlands and pastures.
