Martock is a rural Canadian agricultural community located in the Avon River valley of western Hants County, Nova Scotia. The community was named after Martock House which was the original estate in the area. The Georgian style mansion was built circa 1790 and originally boasted more than 4,000 acres (16 km2) of land. Col. John Butler of England was the builder and original owner. Col. Butler named Martock House for Martock, Somerset, England, his birthplace after he came back from the Colonies and was rewarded with the land and slaves by George III. The home was owned by the Sweet family through much of the 19th and all of the 20th century. In 2019, the home was sold to its current owner, A&R Tran, formerly of Vancouver BC.
