Ashland is the name of the plantation of the 19th-century Kentucky statesman Henry Clay, [2] located in Lexington, Kentucky, in the central Bluegrass region of the state. The buildings were built by slaves who also grew and harvested hemp, farmed livestock, and cooked and cleaned for the Clays.
The male slaves worked the farm. Each one had to keep 20 acres (8.1 ha) of land. In order to save time traveling, the Bryans allowed the slaves to build houses on the property they kept. The slaves at Waveland enjoyed freedoms that were uncommon for other slaves of the day. When they were not working, they were allowed to hunt for themselves.
