Hanahan photographer Chuck Boyd sent along this photo wondering whether people knew where this creative mailbox was. First person with the correct answer wins a pair of vouchers for any RiverDogs’ game. Send your guess — and your name, hometown and contact information — to editor@charlestoncurrents.com.
Hats off to Herb Frazier of Charleston, Chris Brooks of Mount Pleasant and Naomi Blumenthal of Greenwood Lake, N.Y., for guessing last week’s mystery photo as a view of Middleburg Plantation.
“It is the oldest wooden structure still standing in South Carolina, built around 1697-99 by Benjamin Simons,” Frazier writes. Blumenthal, a Charleston native, noted the old plantation house was visited by the Marquis de Lafayette during the Revolutionary War. Also of note: “British soldiers occupied it and played mumblety peg with the columns on the front porch.”
