Carroll Road Bays, Latta, SC, USA
Carroll Road Bays’ name is derived from the road that hugs the northern rim of the three bays at the center. Carroll is the family name of local landowners, who worked with local Indian tribes and ecologists to preserve the largest of bays at the middle of the map from destruction during the construction of an interstate highway. Instead of running down the middle of them, the road will now snake through and “only" disrupt two of them.
