2010 Map of Harpeth Valley

About this map

The Harpeth River carves a winding path through this portion of Tennessee, creating dramatic landforms like Paint Rock Bluff and deep river bends such as Corlew Bend and Bells Bend. This 2010 landscape is characterized by its complex hydrology, where numerous tributaries like Little Leatherwood Creek and Jones Creek feed the main river valley. Cultural features are scattered throughout the hills, including the settlement of Germantown and legacy sites such as Nosegay Cemetery and Williams Cemetery. The map documents a transition in local infrastructure, showing the Petway Ford alongside the Petway Bridge, illustrating how modern crossings have superseded older river fords. Along the western edge, the Hava Lakatu Lake Number One and its associated dam provide a notable instance of water management in an area otherwise defined by natural drainages and hollows like England Hollow.
