South Carolina Highway 385 (SC 385) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. It connects the city of Bennettsville with northern Marlboro County.
SC 385 is a two-lane (mostly) rural highway, traverses 11.5 miles (18.5 km), from Bennettsville, north to SC 79, near the North Carolina state line.
The first SC 385 appeared around 1941-42 as a new primary route from SC 341 to US 15/SC 34. In 1948, it was downgraded to a secondary road.
The current SC 385 was established between 1968-70 as a renumbering of SC 79, from US 15 Bus/US 401 Bus, in Bennettsville, to SC 79. Around 1990, it was extended south, replacing US 15 Bus/US 401 Bus, through downtown Bennettsville, to its current terminus at US 15/US 401.
