It's a stunning red brick building. Don't miss it. [Review 14340 overall, 1664 of 2020, number 2707 in North Carolina.]

I believe that this is the right place for it, i.e., not on the county courthouse grounds or in front of City Hall. It depicts the usual Confederate soldier in uniform, standing tall and holding his rifle, gazing off into the distance. The years of the Civil War are on it and the names of three major battlefields - Chickamauga, Atlanta, Franklin. Many names and ranks are carved on the statue - too many to list. "Erected to Co. A. 10th So. Ca. Regt. of Infantry C.S.A.. Erected by the women of Georgetown, assisted by friends elsewhere, and dedicated to the men who died, or faced death, in the war that asserted constitutional liberty and affirmed our manhood.

For our Monday visit the streets were pretty empty due to Covid and I was able to get some nice shots of the buildings. Interesting trivia: The Four Corners of Law was coined in the 1930s by Robert Ripley, creator of Ripley's Believe it or Not! and it has been called that ever since. Review #1847

This seems to have been a change when those charged with a crime have to come in and check with an officer at a desk before the second metal detector. Of course, you can enter from Broad Street (the actual address of this courthouse is 100 Broad Street) and then you only have one set of metal detectors to go through, but where do you park your vehicle on Broad Street? Good luck with that. After a decade or so, this courthouse still seems fresh and new, having been well maintained.

Brunswick County is named for the colonial port of Brunswick (since abandoned and in ruins) but the…read moreport was named for the Duchy of Brunswick-Luneburg. The county was formed in 1764 though the county seat was not moved to Bolivia until 1978 with this courthouse completed in 2001 along with the other buildings in this county government complex. the courthouse is a three-story structure built of structural steel, concrete, and stone. The building presents a formal, symmetrical façade with a prominent northeast-facing portico supported by four large columns. These rise to a wide entablature that frames the recessed third story, I would describe it as neither Modernist nor Classical Revival, as the building has a sense of classical gravitas while maintaining a contemporary footprint. The interior has a grand staircase rising to the second story and five courtrooms. The building houses the County Superior Court and County District Court of the 13th Judicial District. The government complex is massive and so there is plenty of parking that is a short walk to the building. It is not open on the weekends and even if it was, cameras are not permitted inside. Still, you can walk the grounds to admire this impressive structure. [Review 1364 of 2025 - 4483 in North Carolina - 24916 overall]

The road is wide enough here that you can stop to read the sign and admire the home from the outside. As near as I was able to tell, it is not open for interior tours. The marker reads, "This house, one of Georgetown's earliest, was built ca. 1737 by John and Mary Perry Cleland. Mrs. Cleland inherited the property from her father John Perry, who had been granted a large tract in 1705 including the site of present-day Georgetown. This house is a raised tidewater residence with its main entrance facing the Sampit River. It features elements of the Georgian and Federal styles." And on the reverse, "In 1753 the house was purchased by the Cleland's nephew Archibald Baird. He made small additions to each end of the house and relocated the main entrance to Front Street. A porch was added there ca. 1780. Later prominent owners of the house included John Withers, Jr., Francis Withers, Dr. Joseph Blythe, and Robert F.W. Allston." It is marker 22-48 and was erected by the Georgetown County Historical Society in 1997. [Review 19417 overall - 991 in South Carolina - 387 of 2023.]

An open-air market occupied the first floor and the town hall occupied the second floor; the clock tower and belfry were added in 1845. On February 24, 1865 the town council, meeting here, surrendered Georgetown to officers of the U.S. Navy. The Rice Museum opened in this building during the S.C. Tricentennial in 1970." And on the reverse, "This store, constructed as as a two-story building for Stephen W. Rouquie in 1842, features a cast-iron facade designed by Daniel Badger. In 1869 Heiman Kaminski, who had rented the building since 1867 to house his hardware store, acquired it. Over the next 30 years H. Kaminski and Co. became one of Georgetown's most successful businesses; by 1878 a third story and rear addition were added. The building is now part of the Rice Museum."
