About this map

Pelion and the surrounding Lexington County landscape are defined by an intricate network of small ponds and the headwaters of the Bull Swamp Creek system. The area exhibits a pattern of rural crossroads and named settlements such as Edmund, Macedon, and Testo, connected by roads like Boiling Springs Rd and Old Orangeburg Rd. The settlement at Sharpes Hill sits among a cluster of water features, including Sharpes Pond, Hollow Pond, and Goodwin Pond. Local history is anchored by numerous family and community landmarks, from the Antioch Church and Antioch Cem to the Reichter-Richter Cem. Aviation is central to the local geography, with the Lexington County Airport at Pelion and the smaller Darden Airport serving as prominent landmarks alongside the path of the Railroad Ave corridor through Pelion.
