These two brick buildings, constructed in the mid-19th century by the Hutter family, served as housing for their plantation workers. Family recollections say that the northern building was a residence for the overseer, while the southern one was used by slaves. Architectural and archaeological investigation of the buildings will take place in the future; meanwhile they are used as administrative offices.
