Lexington Courthouses
On this site or close by have stood five courthouses of Lexington District or County. In 1820 Barbara Corley deeded land in the present town for a centrally located courthouse. A later ante-bellum building was burned Feb. 17, 1865 by Sherman. Two successive buildings were in use before the present one was dedicated on Jan. 15, 1940.
Marker is at the intersection of East Main Street (U.S. 1) and South Lake Drive (South Carolina Route 6), on the right when traveling south on East Main Street.
