Old White Meeting House Ruins and Cemetery
Old White Meeting House Ruins and Cemetery, Archaeological site and cemetery in Summerville, South Carolina.
The Old White Meeting House features brick ruins with corners reaching 9 feet high and foundation walls outlining its original 30-foot square design.
Established in 1696 by settlers from Dorchester, Massachusetts, the brick sanctuary was constructed in 1700 and burned during the American Revolution in 1781.
The cemetery contains a collection of granite and marble tablets, obelisks, and table-top stones marking graves from the 1760s to present day.
The 5.8-acre site is accessible via South Carolina Highway 642, located half a mile southeast of South Carolina Highway 165.
The 1886 Charleston earthquake reduced the rebuilt 1794 structure to its current state of preserved corner sections and foundation walls.
