It is located on SH 29, {{convert|6|mi}} northwest of Mason, near Honey Creek.[3][4] Grit was centered on the cotton industry, and once had its own cotton gin. While never a large population, the community did have a school, store and church. The prevailing theory of the town's name is that it reflects the quality of the area soil.[5][6] Grit received a post office in 1901, which remained active until 1980.[7][8] See also
