Drayton Hall is offering a reduced $10 ticket for residents of Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester and Colleton counties and active-duty military. Proof of residency is required.
Adult general admission tickets are typically $29 online and $32 if purchased in person. Patty Sailer , spokeswoman for the Ashley River Road attraction, said the discount is usually offered every January to kick off the new year.
