Background

Hampton County Jail, also known as Old Hampton County Jail and Hampton County Museum, is a historic jail located at Hampton, Hampton County, South Carolina. It was built in 1879–1880, and is a two-story, three-bay-wide brick building, with a central, one-story entry portico on the front facade. The jailkeeper's living quarters occupied the first floor, while the second floor was dedicated to the cellblocks. The jail was dramatically altered about 1925, and a third time in the 1960s. The jail was the only holding facility for newly arrested persons in Hampton County until it closed in 1976.
