Nutter Fort is a town in Harrison County, West Virginia, United States, incorporated in 1923. The town is a southeastern suburb of Clarksburg. In the 1770s, brothers Thomas, Matthew, John, and Christopher Nutter secured a 1,400-acre land grant along the Elk Creek in Monongalia County. They sought refuge from conflicts with Native Americans and they erected a fort in 1772 with the help of settlers Obadiah and Daniel Davisson. This bastion, later known as Nutter's Fort, offered sanctuary to settlers fleeing Native American raids. The original fort is no longer standing; only its foundation remains.
