About this map

Ford Cem sits near the headwaters of Tims Br in this part of the South Carolina coastal plain, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of several significant tributaries. The terrain is dominated by the sprawling wetlands of Upper Three Runs, which serves as the primary drainage for the area. The map illustrates the boundary where Aiken Co meets Barnwell Co, bisecting several drainage systems including Fourmile Br.

Infrastructure is concentrated along the northern edge of the sheet, with Whiskey Rd and Gateway Dr providing primary access to the more developed elevations. The hydrology here is complex, featuring smaller named runs like Turner Br and Tinker Cr, which feed into the larger river systems. This 2017 survey reflects a largely industrial and managed natural landscape, often associated with the specialized land use requirements of this region of the state.
