Kingstree Historic District

Kingstree Town, Williamsburg County, SC

The Kingstree Historic District contains forty-eight properties situated along Main Street, Academy Street, and Hampton Street in the commercial area of downtown Kingstree. The district includes the courthouse, public library, railroad station, and numerous commercial buildings. The district is a fine collection of nineteenth century vernacular architecture. With the exception of the courthouse, most of the buildings in the district were built between 1900 and 1920 when Kingstree enjoyed prosperity as a retail and tobacco marketing center for Williamsburg County. The majority of the buildings in the district form a visible record of this twenty year growth and the historic fabric of the area remains substantially intact. [1]
