Our most recent mystery, “Did it move?” shows the Darby building in the Old Village part of Mount Pleasant.  The question we asked was a twist … because the building didn’t move, but the county did.  The building originally was the Berkeley County Courthouse, but Berkeley County moved its county seat from Mount Pleasant to Moncks Corner more than 100 years ago.
