South Carolina Highway 51 (SC 51) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. It is unique for being signed in two different locations in the state; the first section from Georgetown to Florence, the second section in Fort Mill.
The first SC 51 begins at US 701 near Georgetown, goes northwest and ends at US 76 in Florence and concurrency with SC 41. Majority of the route is a two-lane rural road, except through Hemingway, Johnsonville, and Florence, where it has four lanes.
The second SC 51 is a short 1-mile-long (1.6 km) road that starts at US 21 and ends at the North Carolina state line, continuing on as NC 51 through Pineville. The route is only 2-lane, expanding to 4-lane at the state line.
