Description
This 100-foot tower was built circa 1936 and appears to be a Bethlehem Steel tower. It features a 7'x7'x10' steel cab. Still located in its original location, it looks to be in fair to good condition. The keeper's house is located nearby, along with an original SC Forestry Commission sign, and the tower still appears to host SCFC radio repeater equipment. The tower and ground residence are now privately owned.
