Explore Horse Pasture, Virginia, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Horse Pasture, Virginia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Virginia or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Horse Pasture.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Horse Pasture emerges from the landscape as a quiet convergence of red clay earth and the steady, rhythmic flow of Jennings Creek, which cuts a silver ribbon through the woodland floor. It lies 6.2 miles southwest of Martinsville, VA (from Martinsville, VA: bearing 225°T), and is situated 6.3 miles south-southwest of Collinsville. The air here holds a particular weight in the late afternoon, cooling quickly as shadows stretch from the dense tree lines toward the open spaces where the soil is thick and dark. Far to the west, the distant silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains provide a jagged, blue-hued frame to the horizon, grounding the low-lying plains in a vast, geologic patience. At the edges of the settlement, the land softens into quiet meadows where the light catches the tall grasses, turning them into a pale, flickering gold that seems to hold the warmth of the day long after the sun has slipped behind the ridges.
Horse Pasture carries the imprint of generations who cultivated this inland terrain, moving from early agrarian roots into a modern economy defined by steady, localized industry. The echoes of a hardworking past persist in the functional architecture of the neighborhood, while the Horsepasture Ball Field serves as a vital center for community gathering, where the sharp crack of a bat often rings out against the stillness of the afternoon. Beyond the immediate reach of the dwellings, the landscape dips toward the quiet depths of Burch Hollow, maintaining a seclusion that feels entirely removed from the clamor of wider thoroughfares. Residents often find their way toward the quiet banks of Marrowbone Reservoir, a place where the water remains undisturbed by anything more than the occasional breeze, reflecting the sky in a mirror of unbroken, muted gray.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
