Route description
SC 110 is a two-lane rural highway with relatively few intersections. The highway is named Battleground Road for the entire length. A section east of Mayo is also known as Cowpens Highway. The highway passes next to and ends at Cowpens National Battlefield.
History
The original SC 110 was created in 1936, running from US 221 in Chesnee north to the North Carolina border, where the road became the now-defunct NC 741. In 1942, the highway was renumbered as a part of US 221. The highway was resurrected in 1949 in its near-current form. When US 29, now I-85, was established in the mid-1950s, the highway was rerouted slightly to the west.
