About this map

The Tennessee Valley Divide snakes across this mid-century landscape, separating the headwaters of the Harpeth River and Spring Creek. This rural corridor is defined by the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which anchors the settlements of Chapel Hill, Holtland, and Winn Crossing. The terrain transitions from the elevations of Buckeye Ridge and Swaim Knob into the fertile basins of Cobb Hollow and Bruce Hollow.
