Description
Ashland was the Lexington estate of Henry Clay until his death in 1852. It was then sold to his son James Brown Clay. The estate was named for the large number of ash trees that grew on the property. The original house was replaced by James in 1857 with a new structure on the original foundation and a similar floor plan.
