"Also known as the Cates~Gaither House, this one-story Greek Revival~style planters cottage was built in ca. 1859 by ship builder and merchant Pleasant Cates. The heavy framing includes original pegged joints. Named for the cedar trees on the original site, "The Cedars" was sold to William Gaither in 1901. The house was moved 110 feet west of its original location in 2012. One of the two antebellum houses in Fulton, The Cedars was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 2011."
