Cultural Resources Survey of the Ireland Creek Improvements Project, Colleton County, South Carolina

Abstract

In May 2002, Brockington and Associates, Inc., conducted an intensive cultural resources survey of approximately 2.4 hectares (6 acres) along Ireland Creek, in the City of Walterboro, South Carolina. The Area of Potential Effect (APE) for the proposed Ireland Creek improvements extends between 8-30 meters (25-100 feet) inland from the current stream bank. We conducted an intensive survey and visual inspection of the project in the APE to determine if land disturbing activities will affect any historic properties. The present investigations include background research and intensive cultural resources survey of the APE. Investigators identified no archaeological sites or isolated finds during the field investigations. The Walterboro Historic District is located adjacent to the Ireland Creek improvements project. However, the proposed improvements will not affect this historic property. Therefore, we recommend no further management consideration of the proposed Ireland Creek improvements project with regard to cultural resources.
