2013 Map of Franklin

About this map

Boiling Springs Mounds sits near the eastern edge of this landscape, marking a site of deep pre-colonial significance amidst the modern suburban expansion of Williamson County. The corridor is defined by the winding course of the Harpeth River and its numerous tributaries, including Spencer Cr and Ewingville Cr, which carve through a terrain punctuated by prominent high points like Ropers Knob and Sliders Knob. This 2013 survey illustrates the dense residential character of the region, where established neighborhoods such as Brentwood Hills, Brenthaven North, and Carriage Hills are woven between historical landmarks like Boxwood Hall. The hydrology of the area is particularly complex, featuring Whitehearst Cave Spring and smaller drainages like Hill Cemetery Br and Cotton Gin Br, reflecting a land that was once heavily shaped by its water sources and springs before the contemporary road network of I-65 and Us-31 transformed local connectivity.
