Goblintown Mill, also known as Turner's Mill, Wood's Mill, Walker's Mill, and Martin's Mill, is a historic grist mill complex located near Stuart, Patrick County, Virginia. The mill dates to the 1850s, and is a two-story, timber frame building on a dry stone foundation. The mill retains its original mill race and milling machinery. Associated with the mill is a 1 1/2-story, frame "storehouse" that housed a general store and dwelling. It was built about 1902.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1]
