Morrison Plantation Smokehouse
The Morrison Plantation Smokehouse is a historic plantation outbuilding in rural Hot Spring County, Arkansas. Located off County Road 15 near Saginaw, it is the last surviving remnant of a once-extensive forced labor camp. It was built about 1854, probably by the forced labor of enslaved people, on the plantation of Daniel Morrison.[2]
