Driving Through the Historic Southern Countryside




Old Sheldon Church ruins
Built in 1750, burned by the British in 1779, rebuilt in 1826, and burned again by Northern troops in 1865




Pon Pon Chapel ruins
Constructed in 1754 on a spot where John Wesley preached in 1735, well-known landmark during the Revolution, survived the nearby fighting at Parker's Ferry, but was destroyed by fire in 1801
