The Britton Mims Place, located in Aiken, South Carolina, exemplifies the Greek Revival style typical of secondary country residences during the antebellum period.^[2]^[3] Built around 1830, it is historically significant due to a number of architectural features, including its gabled roof, full width front verandah with hipped roof, and a number of outbuildings, including a (former) kitchen, wooden dog house, and a rectangular fowl house. This well-secluded home is not visible from the public highway. The Britton Mims Place was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on June 4, 1997.^[1]
