Bethel Methodist Church (Charleston, South Carolina)
Bethel Methodist Church is a congregation and National Register property located at 57 Pitt St. The half-acre lot at the southwest corner of Pitt and Calhoun Streets was purchased by the Methodists in 1795 as a burial ground. However, they soon decided to construct a wooden church there called Bethel, and the original building was constructed in 1797-1798. In 1852 construction of the current Bethel Church began, and the existing wooden building was relocated to the rear of the lot. The original wood church was later given to a black congregation and moved again, across Calhoun St. to 222 Calhoun St., where it survives today as Old Bethel United Methodist Church.
