Located within the Savannah National Historic Landmark District, the site consists of 2 trust and 10 tything lots that will be affected by an urban renewal project. Using both documentary and archaeological data, contrasts in land use patterns between trust and tything lots from 1733 to c. 1900 were outlined.
