2019 Map of Powell

About this map

Bullrun Valley and Beaver Valley dominate this corridor of East Tennessee where the ridges of the Appalachian Valley and Ridge province run in parallel northeast-to-southwest bands. The map highlights a dense network of suburban development and rural heritage near Powell and the northern reaches of Knoxville. Numerous family and community cemeteries, such as the Slave Cem and Mabry Cem, indicate generations of local settlement. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations like Copper Ridge and Beaver Ridge, while water features like Hines Creek and Bullrun Creek wind through the lowlands. Cultural and religious hubs are central to the landscape, including Zion Baptist Church Cem in Claxton and Spring Hill Missionary Baptist Church Cem. Industrial and transport markers range from the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks to the Robertson Farm Airport, reflecting the area's mix of residential growth and enduring agricultural roots.
