I love the Coca-Cola and drug store ghost signs on the side of this downtown building in Colbert.
Springwood Cemetery, located in Greenville, South Carolina, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. It is an important cemetery because it reflects the history of the city within its walls. Several early Greenville citizens call Springwood their final resting place. It also contains several Victorian markers and reflects the rural cemetery style that became popular with Mount Auburn Cemetery in Boston, Massachusetts.
The first burial was in 1812. Springwood has been known as the Elford Cemetery, the Old Graveyard, and the Old Village Burial Ground. Springwood features a formal, planned design. The pathways and design of the cemetery were created by landscape architect, G. L. Norrman, a noted architect in the Southeast, who was inspired by the rural cemetery movement.
