2016 Map of Church Hill

About this map

The Holston River carves a complex path through this landscape, creating a series of named hazards and landmarks including Alexanders Shoals, Kings Shoals, and Howards Shoals. Downstream from the bend at Solitude Bend, the river flows around Negro Island and Hord Island, reflecting the intricate river-based geography of the region. The map details the transition from the hills of Pine Ridge and Chestnut Ridge in the north toward the growing suburban and industrial footprints of Church Hill, Mount Carmel, and Kingsport in the south.
