Creation: SC 253 appeared in 1939 as new primary routing, running from US 25-276 in north Greenville in a loop north around Paris Mountain State Park and ending at US 25 (now US 25 CONN Poinsett Hwy) Travelers Rest. This is the only SC 253.
Adjustments: In 1947, SC 253 was downgraded to S-23-22. It is unclear whether SC 253 only used the now-incomplete loop of S-23-169 Tanyard Rd plus Old Tanyard Rd.
In 1950, SC 253 returned, running from US 25-276 North Greenville to SC 414 Tigerville.
Between 1958-63, SC 253 was removed from Camp Crrek Rd and Camp Creek Rd Ext just south of Tigerville.
In 1965, SC 253 south was extended as new primary routing (likely new construction) to SC 250 (now US 25).
In 1968 or 1969, SC 253 south was extended over S-23-105 to end at SC 124.
