MYSTERY PHOTO: Big water

Here’s a beautiful scene, but where is all of this water?  Send your best guess to editor@charlestoncurrents.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.

Our previous mystery, “Pretty little church,” pictured Grace Episcopal Church in the Charleston County fishing hamlet of Rockville.  Congratulations to these astute sleuths: George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; Lese Corrigan and Legare Clement, both of Charleston; Cheryl Smithem of Summerville; Chris Brooks of Mount Pleasant; Bill Segars of Hartsville; Jay Altman of Columbia; Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; and Marnie Huger of Richmond, Va.

Graf shared, “Originally called Church on the Rock, the chapel was built in the late 1830s to serve Wadmalaw plantation owners who spent their summers in Rockville to escape the heat and threat of malaria. Unlike many nearby churches, Grace Episcopal was spared during the Civil War.  The chapel is part of St. Johns Parish and is included in the Rockville Historic District, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.”

Segars added, “The altar’s stained glass window is a signed Tiffany window depicting Christ walking on water, given in memory of Reverend and Mrs. Joseph LaRoche.  There is a match to this window in the church at the U. S. Naval Academy in Annapolis Maryland.”
