1955 Map of Birmingham Point

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Cumberland River and Tennessee River converge here in a landscape defined by the peninsula known as Between the Rivers. This 1955 revision documents the area shortly after the formation of Kentucky Lake, showing a hybrid landscape of submerged valleys and active river commerce. Evidence of industrial activity remains at the Badgett Coal Terminal and the Star Lime Works Ch, while the extensive Kentucky Woodlands Wildlife Refuge covers much of the eastern terrain.
