Enniscorthy is an antebellum Piedmont Virginia plantation complex set within 100 acres of fields, woodlands, and park-like grounds in the scenic countryside of southern Albemarle County. The focal point of the property is an 1850 Greek Revival plantation house noted for its fine proportions and brickwork. Originally a two-story, L-shaped house, the dwelling was enlarged circa 1856 by the addition of three one-story wings. The interior preserves much original, though relatively plain, Greek Revival woodwork. The house replaces an earlier frame plantation dwelling begun in 1784 and burned in 1839. Three antebellum outbuildings and four farm buildings, probably built in association with the earlier dwelling, survive on the grounds. One of the farm buildings is an unusually well-preserved early nineteenth-century barn. Also on the grounds are several contributing early twentieth-century farm buildings. Of particular interest are the handsome surrounding the main dwelling, a fine example of mid-nineteenth-century landscaped park with broad lawns and numerous very large trees, some apparently contemporary with the house or earlier. A total of fifteen contributing and three non-contributing buildings and one non-contributing structure are located within the nominated area. The park is a contributing site. - NRHP, 14 August 1992
