Boiling Springs Historical Chapel-organized in 1842 by Reverend James H. Thornwell, a well-known Presbyterian theologian from Marlboro County who also served as president of South Carolina College from 1851 until 1855, now the University of South Carolina. Thornwell Home for Children in Clinton was named for him. Boiling Springs Presbyterian began holding services every other Sunday in 1846. On the alternate Sundays, the minister would preach at a newer nearby church. Eventually, the two churches merged and became Barnwell Presbyterian Church. In 1896 Boiling Springs Presbyterian was once again recognized as a separate church from Barnwell Presbyterian, and the present building was constructed in 1897. The adjacent sunday school building was added in 1955. Presently, services are held each Sunday evening at 5pm.
