Chelsea Plantation is situated in King William County, Virginia along the Mattaponi River. Chelsea Plantation is one of the finest examples of early 18th Century Georgian architecture. The grounds of Chelsea encompass nearly five acres of lawn with extensive English Boxwood gardens, overlooking the Mattaponi River. During the Revolutionary War, General LaFayette's army was encamped on Chelsea Plantation with the mansion house serving as head quarters. In 1764, Thomas Jefferson attended a wedding in the gardens of Chelsea.
