==History==
Colonel Nathaniel J. Scott built Pebble Hill in 1847 at the center of a plantation. The structure was built in the Greek Revival style with hand-hewn heart of pine floors and joists and rafters held together by wooden pegs. During the Civil War, Wilson's Raiders looted the home, but were unable to find many of the valuables, which had been buried near a spring on the property. By the end of the Civil War, Scott was forced to sell the home, which saw a number of different owners over the following decades. In 1912, the home was purchased by Cecil S. Yarbrough, a state representative and three-time mayor of Auburn. The home remained in the Yarbrough family until 1974, when it was purchased and restored by the Auburn Heritage Association.〔 ''See also:'' 〕 It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 16, 1975.〔 In 1985 the property was donated to Auburn University, which located its Center for the Arts & Humanities in the structure.
