2014 Map of Wedgefield

About this map

General Sumters Tomb stands as a significant historical landmark in the hills near Stateburg, overlooking a landscape defined by the drainage systems of the Wateree River. This area of Sumter County is characterized by a distinct transition from the elevated, road-dense terrain around Springbank Hills and Oakland down into the expansive wetlands of the Wateree basin. The map reveals an intricate network of water bodies, including Ruggs Lake, Hurricane Lake, and Bland Lake, which dominate the western lowlands near Malta. To the south, the community of Wedgefield and its neighboring Wedgewood development mark the intersection of rail lines and state roads, while smaller named localities like Claremont and Dixie Crossing trace the historical movement patterns across the coastal plain before the modern expansion of the Us-378 corridor.
