I think that would still be considered to be Hayes Barton. That area on the west side of Oberlin is called Budleigh, as our old deed said "Forty Acres Revised" .

Default Tatton Hall

That home is called Tatton Hall and was built in 1935 or so for Mr. Edgerton who owned Raleigh Bonded Warehouse. It sits on about 10 acres and is now lived in by his grandson.

Very cool. Thanks for the insight into the history of that home! I love learning about the history of Raleigh. Here is some info I found online based on your great information about Tatton Hall! Thanks!

Fabled Raleigh manse getting interior remake - Triangle Business Journal:

Snipet from the Above Article:

"Edgerton, who died in 1995, was known for his Southern gentility. He once received a plaque from Cadillac because he drove nothing but that brand of car for 70 years."

Tatton Hall. Lovely name for a beautiful place. I'll have to make a point to drive by during the day to see the place. Can you imagine sitting on 10 acres inside the beltline? Thanks so much for the research, both of you -- the name of the beautiful estate and the article.
