2010 Map of Burrville

About this map

Clear Fork and its complex network of tributaries define the rugged geography of this Fentress County landscape. The map centers on significant water crossings and high points such as Iron Mountain, Galloway Knob, and Lyons Knob. The rural infrastructure is highlighted by historic river access points like Howard Ford and Key Ford, alongside established crossings at Peters Bridge and Gatewood Bridge. Local history is preserved through the locations of the Burrville Post Office and several community burial grounds, including Mount Vernon Cemetery and Fellowship Cemetery. The drainage pattern is intricate, with streams like Saunders Mill Branch and Schoolhouse Branch suggesting early industrial and community sites. To the northwest, the terrain drops sharply at Northrup Falls on Big Branch, illustrating the dramatic elevation changes characteristic of this portion of the Cumberland Plateau.
