Moss Tobacco Factory was a historic tobacco factory located at Clarksville, Mecklenburg County, Virginia. It was built about 1855, and was a 3 1/2-story, brick building with a gable roof erected in two sections. The Moss Tobacco Factory operated until 1862. It later housed an exchange or auction house for the sale of tobacco and as a tobacco warehouse.[3] It was demolished in February 1980.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, and delisted in 2001.[1]
