Biggin Church, Colonial church ruins in Moncks Corner, US.

The remaining brick walls of Biggin Church display architectural elements including a rounded water table and window voussoirs from its 1761 construction period.

The original church, built in 1711 as St. John's Berkeley Parish, endured three major fires: a forest fire in 1755, British ammunition storage fire in 1781, and final fire in 1886.

The churchyard contains numerous grave markers that chronicle generations of Berkeley County residents, with the cemetery continuing to serve the local community.

Located near South Carolina Highway 402 intersection, the ruins remain accessible for visitors during daylight hours and maintain an active cemetery on the grounds.

The structure features a Gibbs surround entrance design and corner quoins, demonstrating sophisticated architectural techniques rare in colonial South Carolina buildings.
