2020 Map of Martins Crossroads

About this map

Pachitla Cr meanders southward through the center of this terrain, serving as the primary drainage for a landscape defined by traditional agricultural settlements and water-powered history. The presence of Goffs Mill and Shivers Mill along their respective namesake creeks, Goffs Mill Cr and Shivers Mill Cr, points to a legacy of local industry tied to the region's waterways. In the northeast, the town of Shellman marks a more concentrated hub, while the rest of the area is interconnected by a network of rural routes such as Fountain Bridge Rd and Martin School Rd. Community life is anchored by longstanding institutions including the Damascus Baptist Church and New Bethel Baptist Church. The southern portion of the map transitions toward the Randolph Co and Calhoun Co line, where the landscape opens into the drainages of Long Br and Menrett Cr.
