Antiques and Gardening at Bryn Du will take place May 18th, 19th and 20th in and around the Bryn Du Mansion which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The circa 1905 Georgian Federal sandstone Mansion, previously owned by JS Jones and more recently, Dave Longaberger, remains virtually unchanged since the days when William Howard Taft, Calvin Coolidge and Warren G. Harding dined here. On those long ago summer days, ladies in flowered hats sipped lemonade on the three story portico overlooking the 32 acre front lawn now home to the Columbus Polo Club.

A short drive from Columbus Ohio, The Bryn Du Estate is within easy distance of Alligator mound, the Granville Golf Course (designed by Donald Ross) The Heisey Museum, Daws Arboretum, Blackhand Gorge, and fine dining at The historic Granville Inn, and haunted 1812 Buxton Inn.
