Warner Hall is a historic plantation in Gloucester County, Virginia. It was established in 1642 by a grant to Augustine Warner; the history of the plantation includes association with Bacon's Rebellion when it was sacked by the rebels who confiscated goods amounting to £845, or the equivalent of what 40 slaves or servants would produce in a year., and it was the home of George Washington's grandparents. The current plantation house is a c. 1900 Colonial Revival mansion, built upon much older foundations, and is operated as a country inn.[2]
The plantation was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
