Laurinburg: Scotland County Seat and St. Andrews
Laurinburg, the seat of Scotland County, sits in the southeastern part of the state near the South Carolina border. The city takes its name from the Laurin family, Scottish Highlanders who were among the earliest European settlers in the area. The county itself carries a Scottish name, reflecting the heritage of the 18th century settlers who moved from the Cape Fear valley into the sandhills.
St. Andrews University, a private liberal arts institution founded in 1958, operates on the west side of Laurinburg. The school merged with Webber International University in 2011 and now operates as St. Andrews, a branch of Webber International. The campus includes a working equestrian program, reflecting the traditional horse culture of the surrounding countryside.
Laurinburg developed as a tobacco market town in the early 20th century, and its warehouses once auctioned substantial quantities of bright leaf. Textile manufacturing and small industrial operations supplemented the agricultural economy. The Storytelling and Arts Center of the Southeast preserves regional folk traditions.
