2016 Map of Bethel Valley

About this map

Melton Hill Lake and the winding course of the Clinch River define this East Tennessee landscape, where the ridges of Chestnut Ridge and Copper Ridge run in parallel formation. The map reveals a complex intersection of county lines where Anderson, Roane, Knox, and Loudon counties converge near Lenoir City. While residential streets like Wisconsin Ave and Oklahoma Ave cluster in the north, much of the terrain is characterized by the long, wooded profiles of Blackoak Ridge and Haw Ridge. Researchers will find numerous family burial grounds and small community sites, such as Hembree Cem, Currier Cem, and Scott Cem, often located on higher ground above the river valleys. The Charles Vanden Bulck Bridge spans the water near Bradbury Valley, marking a vital transit point in this valley-and-ridge system.
