Beech and oak forest, clay soils, and rushing brooks are the signatures of Chilmark’s north shore, historically the site of waterfront commerce where paint and bricks were made using the native clay. It’s rural, scenic, and sparsely developed. Seven Gates Farm, Spring Point, Old Farm Road, and Tea Lane are all residential areas off North Road.
