Description
THE HISTORIC OLD SHELDON CHURCH
The Old Sheldon Church in Yemassee, South Carolina has been standing since the 1700's and is an important piece of American History. It has been on the National Registry of Historic Places since 1970 and has survived numerous more than one attempt to destroy including during the Civil War of the 1800's. A fence now surrounds the perimeter of the church restricting access to the inside except during guided tours. I understand the reasoning behind it as vandalism and theft was a problem and I'm glad I got the chance to photograph it before the fence was erected.
