Fairfield County SC

Located in the upper Piedmont region of South Carolina, Fairfield County, with its rolling hills and fertile valleys, is well-known for its picturesque scenery. The county is also known for its "pines, ponds, and pastures" and as a place for people to enjoy living in a serene country atmosphere. The county is steeped in history and populated by people proud of their heritage. Fairfield County has over one hundred historical buildings, churches, and homes. And scattered throughout the picturesque county are monuments and memories that speak of the unique traditions and culture of the area and the upcountry.

Situated between the Broad River on the west and the Wateree River (now Lake Wateree) on the east, the area was hunting grounds for several Indian tribes. Arrowheads and pieces of Indian pottery can still be found on the banks of these bodies of water.
