Nestled close to the Ashley River on 10 acres of land, Old St. Andrew's is not only an active church with a proud congregation, but also a historical landmark, listed in the National Historic Registry, and is said to be South Carolina's oldest surviving church. The church's grounds are well kept, and are comprised of several buildings, a gift shop for tourists, as well as a graveyard that dates back to the 18th century. Famous parishoners have included the Drayton family, who ran the nearby Drayton Hall Plantation, itself another local landmark.
