2016 Map of Sheffield

About this map

Sheffield occupies a critical junction in the Trans-Pecos region, situated where the arid draws of the Edwards Plateau meet the winding Pecos River. The settlement is defined by a sparse grid of streets including Pine St and Garrett St, serving as a remote outpost at the intersection of Pecos, Crockett, and Terrell counties. The landscape is dominated by steep-walled drainage systems and prominent landmarks like Squaw Peak, which overlooks the river valley. Water remains the primary shaper of the terrain here, evident in the convergence of Fourmile Draw, Twomile Draw, and Sheffield Draw toward the river. For genealogists and local historians, the Sheffield Cem and the location of Pecos Spring provide fixed points of reference for the community's development in this harsh, canyon-carved corner of West Texas.
