Cherryville, North Carolina

Cherryville is a small city in northwestern Gaston County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 5,760 at the 2010 census. The city was settled in the mid 18th century when German, Scottish and Irish settlers moved down from Pennsylvania. It was settled on that spot as it was at the crossroads between Morgantown to Charleston.
The local economy has mainly been dominated by agriculture over the years. From cotton milling, to textile and yarn production to the sewing and fabricating of clothing. Since the heyday of the industry it turned to being a major shipping hub for produce coming up from Florida.
