1942 Map of Honey Hill

About this map

Francis Marion National Forest defines this lowcountry landscape, where dense swamp drainage and small agricultural clearings meet at the intersection of Berkeley, Charleston, and Georgetown counties. The settlement of Honey Hill serves as a central point, supported by local landmarks like the Honey Hill Lookout Tower and the Wesley Sch church and schoolhouse. This map, based on 1942 data with revisions from the 1970s, illustrates a rural economy tied to the river and timberlands, with small outposts such as Newland, Charley Bridges, and Thompson Corner connected by winding light-duty roads.
