Explore the battlefields, historic sites, and museums with this 10-part series of road trips across the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.roadtripsandcoffee.com\/revolutionary-war\/\">Revolutionary War Travel Guides<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Beaufort is South Carolina&#8217;s second-oldest city after Charleston. But when the American Revolution began far to the north, it was a small city in a sparsely populated region. In 1778, three years of failing to capture George Washington forced the British to change tactics. In a monumental shift, the British unexpectedly captured Savannah. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suddenly, Beaufort was no longer just a quiet corner. It was a buffer between Charleston and British West Florida. And it would become a hotbed of skirmishes, battles, and troop movements over the next year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Embark on a 96-mile road trip from the historic small town of Walterboro along U.S. Highway 21 to Beaufort and the Sea Islands. Spend a day or two exploring historic sites, museums, and fabulous local restaurants on Bay Street. Then, continue the road trip to Hilton Head Island to visit the Zion Chapel of Ease and the resting site of an American Revolution Patriot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group sponsored-box\"><div

Continue your tour through history into the Civil War and learn about General Sherman&#8217;s march through the area during the Civil War. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also a great place to learn about the region&#8217;s greatest outdoor asset \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.org\/en-us\/get-involved\/how-to-help\/places-we-protect\/ace-basin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The ACE Basin<\/a>.

In 1757, Prince William&#8217;s Parish church was opened on land donated by Royal Governor William Bull. The locals called it Sheldon Church after Bull&#8217;s nearby Sheldon Plantation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1779, British General Augustine Prevost attempted to capture Charleston. His siege was thwarted, and he hastily retreated back to Savannah. Along the way, his army burned the Sheldon Church. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was rebuilt in 1826 but burned again when General Sherman marched through during the Civil War. And the ruins remain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A black cast iron fence, about 2&#8242; tall, was recently installed around the ruins to prevent curious visitors from climbing the ruins. Except &#8220;ruins&#8221; is a word that almost doesn&#8217;t seem to apply. The towering brick columns and exterior walls reach almost as high as the surrounding oak trees. They are amazingly intact and wonderfully gorgeous. <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"47637\" class=\"elementor elementor-47637\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b317ab2 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b317ab2\" data-element_type=\"container\" id=\"mediavine-advertisement-desktop\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-91875b8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"91875b8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-450af8e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"450af8e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">advertisement<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7685227 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7685227\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content_hint\">\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large uag-hide-mob\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roadtripsandcoffee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/road-trip-revolutionary-war-lowcountry-jb012-jpg.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large uag-hide-desktop uag-hide-tab\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roadtripsandcoffee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/road-trip-revolutionary-war-lowcountry-jb013-jpg.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large uag-hide-mob\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roadtripsandcoffee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/road-trip-revolutionary-war-lowcountry-jb014-jpg.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Shrimp Po-Boy at Plums is one of the required Lowcountry meals in Beaufort.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large uag-hide-desktop uag-hide-tab\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roadtripsandcoffee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/road-trip-revolutionary-war-lowcountry-jb015-jpg.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Shrimp Po-Boy at Plums is one of the required Lowcountry meals in Beaufort.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"preheader\">Destination<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"beaufort-sc\">Beaufort, SC<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beaufort was chartered in 1711, forty-one years after Charleston. The town struggled to grow with repeated Native American attacks and Charleston usurping nearly all the lucrative export trade. The population was thin, but it was a prosperous area. Carolina Gold rice and highly demanded indigo were grown on plantations around Beaufort, leading to a surge in prosperity for southern planters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the start of the Revolutionary War, South Carolina was the fourth most prosperous colony. That made it a target. After three years of failing to capture George Washington in the north, the British developed the Southern Strategy. Capture Georgia and the Carolinas, fight the Americans to a standstill, sue for peace, and keep the prosperous South. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the British unexpectedly captured Savannah in 1778, it put Beaufort in the middle of amassing British troops in the south and Charleston. In the summer of 1779, General Augustine Prevost captured Beaufort, and the British occupied the city for three years. <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"59872\" class=\"elementor elementor-59872\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a93b79 elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"6a93b79\" data-element_type=\"container\" id=\"mediavine-advertisement-mobile\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f47d793 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f47d793\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b537ca5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b537ca5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">advertisement<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9cd65f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9cd65f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content_hint\">\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best ways to learn about Beaufort&#8217;s extensive history is with a guided tour. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beauforttoursllc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beaufort Tours<\/a> offers one-hour history, movie, and golf cart tours.

They were the centers of government as polling places and collected taxes. The Parish Church of St. Helena was founded in 1712, shortly after the town was established. The first iteration of the present building was completed in 1724. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walk through the graveyard surrounding the church to find some interesting gravesites. Among them is John Barnwell, one of the two planters who founded Beaufort. Buried in 1724, his is one of the oldest in the graveyard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the most intriguing gravesite is the dual burial plot of British soldiers. Lieutenant William Calderwood and Ensign John Finley were killed at the Battle of Port Royal in 1779. It&#8217;s a rare example of British soldiers buried at a colonial church. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group did-you-know\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Did You Know?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1740, a chapel of ease was built on nearby St. Helena Island for the island&#8217;s planters.

At the main gate, you&#8217;ll have to provide a valid driver&#8217;s license for anyone in the car over 16 and a car registration. Approval takes about 15 minutes.

A scenic dirt road leads to the small cemetery surrounded by a low brick wall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born in 1746 on a family plantation in Ridgeland, Heyward was like many others born to wealthy planters. He studied law in England and was elected to the colonial legislature in Charleston. But when independence was considered, Heyward joined the movement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was elected to the First and Second Provincial Congresses and signed the Declaration of Independence Articles of Confederation. In 1779, he was commissioned as a captain of the militia artillery in Beaufort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the Fall of Charleston in 1780, Heyward was captured by the British. He was initially granted parole to live at his house in the city. But less than two months later, he was suddenly exiled, along with dozens of other Patriots, to St. Augustine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Heyward died in 1809, he was buried in the family cemetery on their plantation in Ridgeland. Today, nothing remains of the plantation except for the small brick-walled cemetery.

No battles ever happened on the island, and only one recorded death existed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Sea Island Cotton industry began in the late 1700s. After the Civil War ended the industry, the island served as a private hunting reserve for various tycoons. In 1956, the same year the first bridge was completed to the island, Charles Fraser began developing the Sea Pines Resort \u2013 shifting the island&#8217;s destiny toward tourism. <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"59872\" class=\"elementor elementor-59872\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a93b79 elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"6a93b79\" data-element_type=\"container\" id=\"mediavine-advertisement-mobile\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f47d793 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f47d793\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b537ca5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b537ca5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">advertisement<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9cd65f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9cd65f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content_hint\">\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n\n<p>Coligny Beach Park is the best place for day trippers to hit the beach on Hilton Head Island.

The cemetery was the militia&#8217;s muster ground, and a nearby building served as their headquarters. A Chapel of Ease was built in 1788 to serve the island planters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But nothing remains of the muster ground or the chapel today. Instead, visitors find a small cemetery along the busy highway with a meandering path among the gravesites. A few Revolutionary War Patriots are among the buried. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most notable gravesite is that of Charles Davant. In 1781, a staunch Loyalist, Captain Martinangel of Daufuskie Island, ambushed Davant on his ride home. Mortally wounded, Davant rode his horse to his plantation at Two Oaks, where he later died. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During a small ceremony in 1996, one of Davant&#8217;s descendants unveiled a bronze plaque on his gravesite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"south-carolina-revolutionary-war-road-trips\">South Carolina Revolutionary War Road Trips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Read the other articles in this 10-part series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roadtripsandcoffee.com\/road-trip-revolutionary-war-olde-english-district\/\">Part 1 &#8211;
