The Guest Cottage, Courtyard, & adjacent field at Biltmore Estate Asheville, Buncombe County

Farm house? I was told a farm building ... This was not my idea of a farm building, but after a talk with the gentleman at the entrance gate, I was easily able to spot this building from the road as the scene of Albany. I parked my car and assessed the view. Yep! That was it. I walked over to the tree where the shot had been set up at. The one where Duncan rides up on his horse. Inexplicably, I never did shoot a photograph from that exact location. So, I walked inside the courtyard - viewed the interior at some length, figuring out where the apple press had been located, where Cora was standing - and on through, and out to the green, grassy field where Cora & Duncan had sat. Pretty easy, all things considered.
