Old Wappetaw Church
Congregationalists from New England
built a church near here around 1700.
Troops from both sides camped on the
grounds during the American Revolution.
Burned by the British in 1782, it was
rebuilt in 1786.
The building was abandoned during
the Civil War and its members organized
Presbyterian churches in Mount Pleasant
and McClellanville.
Marker is on Ocean Highway (U.S. 17) 0.1 miles north of 15 Mile Landing Road (South Carolina Route 10-584), on the right when traveling south.
