Black Creek Baptist Church Ruins

Dovesville, SC

Three enormous brick columns stand in Black Creek Cemetery as the surviving pieces of a Greek Revival church destroyed by an accidental fire on Easter Sunday in 1922. Four columns originally survived, but one later fell after vandalism connected to rumors that a time capsule had been sealed inside. The active cemetery predates the ruins and should be visited respectfully during lawful access hours.
