Trenton completes town square Edgefielddaily.com web posted June 1, 2005   The centerpiece of the square, the cannon, has been
returned to its prominent place in the square which now is surrounded
by pathways and benches. At the edge of the square in a raised flower
bed stands the new addition of a large town clock bearing the name of
the town and its incorporation in date of 1871.At the entrance to the plaza are two plaques which show some of the rich history of Trenton and also its favorite son, Ben Tillman, who served in government as well as being one of the Ten Governors from Edgefield County. Chief of Police Tanks said, “It really looks good.”  The new look from the old pebbled area is surrounded by
flowers and grass with the signature magnolia facing town hall. Some
wanted to take the tree down but Mayor Helen Summer said the architects
said to leave it, which they did.Trenton Councilman Keith Sexton saw the newly completed square today for the first time as well, “That is beautiful,” he said. Mr. Sexton said it was a “big improvement, it’s a beautiful place to visit.” In addition to being very pleased personally Mr. Sexton said the town was very happy as well and the work had been completed ahead of schedule, “they promised they would have it done before the Peach Festival and they did it,” he said. The Peach Festival is June 18th. Return to Main Page
