Spindletop Farm (FA-432) is a Saddlebred horse farm located on Ironworks Pike, approximately five miles north of Lexington, Kentucky. Its main house, Spindletop Hall, was constructed in the Georgian Revival style for Ms. Pansy Yount of Beaumont Texas in 1935-1937, becoming the seat of the 1,066 acre Spindletop Farm. The house consists of 40 rooms containing over 45,000 square feet. This nomination proposes the listing of 30 acres of the historic property, including the 1935-1937 mansion, a garage, a pool house, a stable, aviaries, kennels, and the remains of a Japanese garden, all enclosed by an 8 foot tall security fence constructed for Yount in 1938. The nomination interprets the property as a historic Saddlebred Horse training and breeding facility.
