2013 Map of Church Hill

About this map

Church Hill and Mount Carmel anchor this 2013 survey of the Holston River valley, where the suburban growth of the Kingsport area meets the long-standing agricultural and transport corridors of Sullivan County. The map documents a landscape defined by parallel ridges like Pine Ridge and Brushy Ridge, with the Cherokee Lake impoundment creating a complex shoreline at Solitude Bend and McPheeter Bend. Historical infrastructure remains visible through features such as the Sensabaugh Tunnel and the site of Hord Mill along Hord Cr, while the inclusion of Ross Campground and several neighborhood springs like Union Spring and Clear Spring points to the area's social and natural history. This edition provides a precise view of the local aviation footprint at Darnell's Field Airport and Darnell's Landings Airport, positioned along the river flats south of the main settlements.
