Westover is a historic mansion on a Southern plantation in Milledgeville, Georgia, USA.

The plantation was established in the late 1810s. The great house was built circa 1818-1819 for John Clark, who served as the governor of Georgia from 1819 to 1824. It was later purchased by Congressman Seaton Grantland. It was inherited by his daughter, Mrs DuBignon, in the 1860s.

The plantation was acquired by Bim Richardson in the 1920s, who sold it to the Carl Bentleys in the 1940s.

The plantation house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since June 22, 1979.
