Howard's Neck Plantation is a historic plantation home and farm complex located near Pemberton, Goochland County, Virginia. It was built about 1825, and is a two-story, three bay brick structure in the Federal style. The house is similar in style to the works of Robert Mills. It has a shallow deck-on-hip roof and a small, one-story academically proportioned tetrastyle Roman Doric order portico. Also on the property are the contributing one-story frame house said to be the original farm dwelling dating from colonial times, a 20th-century frame house, early-19th century brick kitchen, two frame smokehouses, a frame tool house, two early carriage houses and a harness house, three log slave quarters, the manager's house, and a sizable tobacco barn.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1]
