2019 Map of Church Hill

About this map

The Holston River winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, defining a series of prominent bends such as Solitude Bend and Smith Bend. The river's course is punctuated by Howards Shoals and Alexanders Shoals, alongside notable river features like Hawkins Island and Smith Island. This topography reflects the transitional geography where the ridge-and-valley province meets the expanding industrial and residential footprints of Kingsport and Church Hill. To the north, the terrain rises into the parallel ridges of Pine Ridge and Chestnut Ridge, separated by the long, cultivated expanse of Stanley Valley.
