The Combahee River defines this Lowcountry landscape along the boundary of Colleton and Beaufort counties. This late-twentieth-century survey documents a coastal environment heavily managed by a network of drainage and flood control, indicated by numerous Levee systems and an extensive road on levee network. Settlement is concentrated at White Hall and Hickory Hill, with the historic Bonny Hall situated near the riverbanks. The importance of water access and telecommunications to the area is clear through the presence of a Public Boat Ramp, a private Landing Strip, and the WJWJ Radio Tower. The intricate winding paths of Cuckolds Creek, Folly Creek, and Branford Creek illustrate the tidal complexity of the South Carolina coast, where land and water are inextricably linked by both nature and engineering.
