Unknown Location Greenville SC ?

I was driving down a cut through road in Greenville yesterday and saw this.

When I checked it out I found a short stone wall, a paved walkway and tons of brick remnants all severely overgrown with trees and other plants extending pretty far back into the woods.

Has anyone in the Upstate been to this site or know what it was? My curiosity is piqued and I haven't found any information on this.

If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try to catch you because, hey, free dummy

I'm pretty sure I know what this is... a friend of mine referred to it as the "Manley Mansion" site. I'm making my guess based on your "entrance" photo, as I've never been beyond that point.

I don't know the specific history of the site, but I do know the Manleys were a prominent family in early 1900's history in the Greenville, SC area.

My friend said on one excursion to the site he made some odd findings... a large green tower, possibly a water storage tank - and some kind of dome. This would have been 7+ years ago at least.

If I'm right about the site's ID, Google Earth and other sat. data is worthless due to heavy tree cover. I'd be up for an excursion ot this site, if you're looking for a partner...

I've seen pictures of the mansion you are referring to I believe. The only thing left of it is some low walls that somewhat form rooms and possibly some old furniture, at least that's how it looked in the pictures. Did it burn down? I have no idea what happened to it.

Went today and hit a few other spots pm for locations and directions the path simply runs around to the power line trail on the left before it very little left except for some debri and brick pieces. Thanks again for the help. Will post pics when i can since i have a 26.5k connection. Just wondering how long you should wait to ask about being a full member. seems as tho you have to know someone. dunno


anyway have fun out there.

Glad you found the place ok and had a good trip. patience is the most important virtue when trying for full membership. However the more you post and get involved the faster it will come. Meeting other members in person does help the process if you can do it. I waited for quite a while before asking for full membership, nearly a year, but it is different for every person. Posting pictures of places you have explored will give you good credibility and increase your chances of being approved.
