2022 Map of Martinsville West

About this map

The Smith River winds through the heart of Henry County, carving a valley that anchors the industrial and residential development of Martinsville and its surrounding communities. This modern survey illustrates the proximity of long-standing settlements like Fieldale, Bassett Forks, and Collinsville, showing how they are connected by arterial routes like the Virginia Ave and T B Stanley Hwy. The map provides significant detail for local historians and genealogists, locating the Henry County Courthouse alongside several established burial grounds, including Peoples Cem and Oakwood Cem. Institutional growth is evidenced by the New College Institute, while the terrain to the south rises toward landmarks such as Dug Mtn and Chestnut Knob. The transition from the urban grid of Martinsville to rural landscapes like Horse Pasture highlights the varied development patterns of this Piedmont region.
