E.A. Poole General Merchandise, aka Poole’s Cross Roads, was built ca. 1900 at the rural crossroads of US-178 and SC-3 in Lexington County. Elza ran the store until 1941, when he was killed in a car accident on the way to his store.
Location: US-178 and SC-3, Swansea, South Carolina
Just stopped at a stand there selling pickles, crafts and yard sale items. Would love to know more history and see pictures of what it used to look like back in it’s operating days. It’s an amazing building.
