2017 Map of Hull

About this map

Hull and the surrounding agricultural uplands of Madison and Clarke Counties are defined by a network of small family-named cemeteries and rural settlements. This 2017 survey shows the transition from the old mill economy at Barretts Mill and Seagraves Mill Pond toward modern residential development near the northern edges of Athens. Local history is etched into the landscape through many family burial grounds, including the Chandler, Matthews, and Thompson cemeteries. The topography is shaped by the numerous tributaries of the Sandy Creek and Trail Creek system, which feed several reservoirs like Muse Lake and Sanford Lake. The intersection of Danielsville Road and Hull Road marks the community core, while outlying areas such as Diamond Hill and Planter maintain a more dispersed character, connected by old routes like Nowhere Road and Sam Swindle Road.
