The Bray Estate/Bashford Manor Bed and Breakfast Inn and the Bardstown Road Corridor (Program)
1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
1000 South Hurstbourne Parkway (at Linn Station Road), Louisville, KY
Presented by: Cynthia Cooke
The “Old Bray Place” was once a large land-grant plantation. Farming and eventually thoroughbred horses were the business of this property along the Bardstown Pike until times changed drastically. Pressure for suburban growth after WWII led to land division and sell off. New schools and neighborhoods filled the Hikes Lane, Goldsmith Lane and Bardstown Road area. Revered historic structures were disappearing.
Enter Cynthia Cooke and the 1796 Bashford Manor B&B Inn. Cynthia will familiarize us with the decade of hard work and teamwork leading to this successful endeavor.
