Roseland is a historic mansion located at 916 Huntington Stadium Fisherman South Drive, Ferriday. The house is located in a 9.3 acres (3.8 ha) area along southwestern shore of Lake Concordia, about 1 mile (1.6 km) southeast of Ferriday. It was built between 1832 and 1850 as part of a plantation and was moved twice, in c.1965 and in 1977, before reaching its actual position. Despite the movements and a certain number of alterations, the mansion retains its historical integrity.[2][3]

The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 10, 1985.[1]
