A GOOD REASON TO GO
National Scenic Byway
The Ashley River Road passes by three national historic landmarks -- Saint Andrew s Episcopal Church, Drayton Hall and Middleton Place -- as it traverses a National Register Historic District that traces the history of European and African settlement, commerce and industry from their colonial origins to the present.

Before you go
Choose your stops before departure and check current road access, weather and vehicle suitability. A byway listing does not guarantee that every section or visitor facility is open.
Allow time for the approach, interpretation and breaks. Check the specific facilities and walking surfaces your guests need.
Current access, reservations, fees and operating arrangements should be checked with the official operator or managing agency. Photographs can show earlier conditions.
