"In 2013, Brockington and Associates conducted a historical resources survey of unincorporated Greenville County for the Greenville County Recreation District and the South Carolina Department of Archives and History (SCDAH). The objective of this survey was survey was to identify a sample of 1,100 aboveground historic architectural resources in the survey universe that retain sufficient integrity to be included in the South Carolina Statewide Survey of Historic Properties (SSHP). These resources include buildings, structures, objects, districts and landscapes that have architectural or historical significance. During the course of the historic architectural survey of unincorporated Greenville County, we identified 1,100 historic architectural resources of which 20 are recommended individually eligible for listing in the [National Register of Historic Properties]. An additional six areas are recommended for future intensive survey, as they have the potential to be NRHP-eligible districts. These include Conestee Mill Village, the Piedmont Mill Village, the communities of Slater and Fork Shoals, and the communities surrounding the Union and Renfrew Bleacheries. The remaining resources of the survey universe are recommended not eligible for listing."--Page iii.

"This report is meant to be a comprehensive survey of the existing Piedmont Mill Village in both Anderson and Greenville Counties to locate and determine the eligibility of historic resources within the community for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places as individual resources or contributing to a district or districts. It is the hope of the Bonnes Amies that the findings contained in this survey will serve as the basis for future nominations to the National Register by individual property owners or county governments. Piedmont is not an incorporated community; therefore, the community survey area was not limited by a set of city boundaries but instead looked only at resources within the mill village owned by the mill till the 1950s. This means that there are resources that are within the period of significance and retain a high degree of integrity in the vicinity that are not included in this report. A few noteworthy resources are identified at the end of this report because the author had previous knowledge of them."--[Leaf] 4.
