The town of Gallaway and the surrounding Fayette County landscape are defined by a sophisticated system of twentieth-century water management. Waterways like the Loosahatchie River Canal, Little Cypress Creek Canal, and Laurel Creek Canal illustrate how the natural drainage of west Tennessee was straightened and engineered to support agriculture. These canals cut across the terrain, bypassing the original meandering paths of Beaver Cr and Wilder Cr.
