Walterboro Fire Department was sent to the area of Acorn Road and Sniders Highway for a structure fire at 12:18 p.m. Authorities said a "large woods and debris fire" was behind the business.
It took firefighters about 25 minutes to bring the blaze under control, but the building suffered substantial damage. High winds caused the fire to spread from an unattended burn barrel to a large pile of debris.
