Geocache Description:

Located in the Eufaula Seth Lore Historic District, this cache is very close to the Bray Barron Bennett home. This home is located on the National Historic Register and was built over 165 years ago. Should be an easy find. Camo to blend in with its surroundings.

The Seth Lore-Irwinton Historic District, the largest historic district in east Alabama and one of the largest in the state, encompasses much of the oldest part of Eufaula. In 1834, Capt. Seth Lore and others founded what is today known as the downtown area. They named the four main avenues Livingston, Orange, Randolph and Eufaula. The first letter of each avenue together spelled the captain's last name. Many of the historic homes and buildings in the district can be found along these streets. In addition to Shorter Mansion, where scenes from the movie Sweet Home Alabama were filmed, the district – listed in the National Registry of Historic Places – showcases more than 700 significant sites, including an extensive collection of domestic Italianate architecture and other homes and churches built between 1834 and 1915.

Maps for self-guided walking or driving tours of the district, as well as information on other attractions in the county, are available at the Eufaula Chamber of Commerce (333 E. Broad St.; 334-687-6664; map). The chamber is located in the James S. Clark Center, which was built in 1892 as a Central of Georgia freight train depot.
