Location: Berkeley County
Childsbury was one of the first settlement towns established in the Carolina colony. Strawberry Chapel was one of the buildings created during this time and to this day is the only remaining structure. The church was built in 1725.
During this time there where many other plantations being built and the the Childsbury settlement could not compete, which caused the town to diminish. The chapel was used for many years during this time because the nearest church was Biggin church roughly 10 miles away. The chapel today is thought to be haunted, so if your in the area Strawberry Chapel is a must see especially at night.
