The <br />Cabe - Pratt- Harris House, also known as Riverbend Farm, is a National <br />Register - eligible property located on the west side of Pleasant Green Road, just <br />north of the Eno River. <br />This nomination will be considered by the North Carolina National Register <br />Advisory Committee at a meeting on January 14, 1999 in Raleigh. Preceding <br />this meeting is a 60 -day review - and - comment period, which began on <br />November 16. <br />As a participant in the Certified Local Governments Program administered by <br />the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), the County is afforded the <br />opportunity to review and comment on all National Register nominations <br />1 The report was delivered by Margaret Hauth, Planning Director for the Town of Hillsborough. The State <br />Historic Preservation Office sent the report to the Town of Hillsborough in error, mistakenly believing that <br />the Town and the Hillsborough Historic District Commission were the CLG entities involved. <br />
