The Mayfield Downtown Commercial District is a historic district in Mayfield, Kentucky which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. The listing was increased in 1996.^[1]

The original 27 acres (11 ha) area included 77 contributing buildings; the 18.4-acre (7.4 ha) increase added 21 more.^[1] ^[2]^[3]

It includes the Graves County Courthouse, built in 1888 at cost of $40,000, the fourth courthouse at the location.^[2]
