2024 Map of Gilbert

About this map

Summit and Gilbert serve as central nodes in this Lexington County landscape, where the geography is defined by a dense network of creeks and named ponds. The drainage of Hollow Creek and Horse Creek characterizes the northern terrain, while the south is marked by smaller basins like Shealy Pond and Oswalds Pond. This modern survey reveals a community deeply rooted in its local history, evidenced by numerous burial sites and sanctuaries such as the Old Salem Church and the Derrick Cem. Local aviation is represented by The Farm Airport and the Gilbert International Airpark, suggesting a persistent rural character despite the growth surrounding the Batesburg-Leesville corridor. From the crossroad at Clubhouse Crossroads to the quiet reaches of Lightwood Knot, the map illustrates a transition from established small-town centers to the family-named landmarks and winding secondary roads typical of South Carolina's interior.
