New home

Erin Smith|Bladen Journal

In an effort to place the Sally Salter Monument closer to the actual site of the Battle of Elizabethtown, workers carefully prepared the heavy marble stone for a move to its new home near Wells Fargo Bank at the intersection of West Broad Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive in Elizabethtown. For many years, the monument was located on the front lawn of the Bladen County Courthouse.

The Sally Salter Monument arrives safely in its new home nesteled in the shrubbery between Guyton and Associates and Wells Fargo Bank on Broad Street. The location is considered by some to be close to the point where the Battle of Elizabethtown was fought.
