Black and white photograph of the general view south (front) elevation of the William Wragg House located at 160 Broad Street.

William Wragg constructed this three story dwelling for his primary residence c. 1855. The McLeod family then obtained the house and lowered it to two stories with a Colonial Revival renovation and portico.

Photographer Charles N. Bayless, funded by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, photographed and recorded the Carolina Lowcountry between 1970 and 1988. The South Carolina Project took place between 1977 and 1979.
