Here's a Bluffton photo taken by an unknown local photographer. The Icon thinks this looks like Bentley Road. We dropped the question on Charles Hilty of Reston, Va. Here's his take on the photo:

This IS Bentley Road looking south to what would become the split interchange that was part of the first, two lane only Bluffton bypass.   

The house at the right, unoccupied by then, stood at spot where Beaver Street came out to the Bentley Road. It was vacant then, already sold to the state for the highway project.    

You may not be familiar with this Bluffton location. It's at the Lion and Lamb Peace Arts Center at Riley Court on the Bluffton University campus.
