The Historic Architecture of Johnston County highlights a diverse array of buildings and structures in one of North Carolina's fastest growing counties. Nestled between Raleigh and Goldsboro along the fall line that separates Coastal Plain and Piedmont, Johnston is known for its fascinating personalities, its close-knit small towns and rural communities, and its long-held status as a leading agricultural county. An influx of newcomers to the western half of the county since the late 1980s has transformed much of the rural landscape, but farming is still alive and well in the eastern sections where extensive development has yet to occur. Buildings such as those featured in these pages provide vital, irreplaceable connections to a cherished past and rural way of life that is ever-changing.

Created in 1746, Johnston County is located along the fall line between North Carolina's Piedmont and Coastal Plain regions. Smithfield, on the Neuse River, has been the county seat since 1771. In 1856, Johnston County became part of the Fertile Crescent along the east-west North Carolina Railroad, which spawned the thriving towns of Princeton, Pine Level, Selma, and Clayton. In the 1880s, a north-south rail line, eventually known as the Atlantic Coastline, brought Kenly, Micro, Four Oaks, and Benson into existence. Johnston County boasts film legend Ava Gardner, bootleg kingpin Percy Flowers, Vicks VapoRub, and other local claims to fame. It is still a farming county, although recent growth from the Research Triangle region has brought marked changes to the rural landscape. In recent years, Wilson's Mills and Archer Lodge have gained corporate status. These historical images tell a story not only of the extraordinary people who have called Johnston County home but also of the ordinary, everyday individuals who have left their mark.
