Description
Come learn about this historic neighborhood which was established in the late 1800s and named after Dr. William H. Cobb, a local physician. Cobbham initially developed as a residential community for university faculty and affluent families, and today it features a rich tapestry of architectural styles, including Queen Anne, Neoclassical, and Craftsman homes, many dating from the 1890s to the 1940s. Tourgoers will see several notable landmarks, including the historic Cobbham Baptist Church and the original homes of many prominent Athens families.
