Standing in Royal Spring Park, this rustic, two-bay cabin was constructed by a former enslaved person. Milton Leach built the cabin with recycled chestnut logs, a mortar-free stone foundation, mud for the massive chimney and old ash boards for the floor. Leach descendants owned the cabin until 1948. It became a landmark within the park in the 1970s.
