DESCRIPTION The Forks of Cypress ruins, the remains of an exceptional Alabama plantation house dating from c. 1825-1830, consists today of a series of twenty-three brick columns, arranged as a peristyle, resting on a limestone stylobate. A brick foundation with brick and limestone lined light wells and a brick lined cellar with a later poured concrete floor mark the former location of the house within the peristyle. Brick paving occupies the area between the colonnade and the foundations. The ruins crown the level top of a gentle slope at the confluence of the Big Cypress and Little Cypress creeks. The surrounding countryside consists largely of tree-lined open fields with a few trees scattered in the immediate vicinity of the site. The rolling agricultural land to the south of the house probably closely resembles the historic pastoral setting of the ruins within the horse farm of James Jackson,
