The Fence at the Mabry-Jones House

The fence that surrounds the Mabry-Jones House is one of the simplest,
 yet most unique in town, and you are invited to step inside the fence
 on Friday, March 16 for an evening reception and tour of this 1850 mansion.
 Once the home of Capt. Catesby ap Roger Jones (who commanded the Merrimac
 against the Monitor) in a Civil War battle of the ironclads, this Greek Revival
 still remains in the family and is filled with intriguing collections.
 Even more intriguing are the circumstances of Capt. Jones' death.
 For more information about the house and tour,
