Bradley, South Carolina, is located on the southwest border of Greenwood County. The unincorporated town’s population is 160. If you’ve ever driven 221 south, you drove right past the Smith Steifle Grocery Store.

Ruben Smith Steifle ran the store for over 50 years. Stifle passed away in 2021, and according to his obituary, he was “a friend to many.” I am uncertain if the store is open.
