The population was 879 at the 2010 census. It is part of the Martinsville Micropolitan Statistical Area. HistoryThe area was first settled in 1770 by planter George Waller, an officer in the state militia who was later promoted to Colonel, and his wife Ann Winston (Carr), first cousin of statesman Patrick Henry, as a protected ford across the Smith River.[3] The local militia trained on Col. Waller's acreage.[4] The settlement was subsequently known as Waller's Ford for over a century. A Virginia Historical Highway Marker unveiled in September 2017 marks the location of Col. Waller's plantation.[5] In 1916, Marshall Field & Company purchased the site from the Waller heirs and established Fieldcrest Mills, the town of Fieldale, and an {{convert|8500|sqft|m2|adj=on}} company clubhouse, all completed in 1919. The Fieldale Historic District, Marshall Field and Company Clubhouse, and Virginia Home are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[6] GeographyFieldale is located at {{Coord|36|41|59|N|79|56|22|W|type:city}} (36.699850, −79.939482).[7] According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 1.6 square miles (4.2 km²), all of it land.
