1952 Map of Powell

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Clinch River winds through a landscape defined by parallel ridges and fertile valleys along the border of Anderson and Knox counties in the early 1950s. The terrain is structured by prominent geological features such as Chestnut Ridge, Copper Ridge, and Beaver Ridge, which channel the development of local road networks and small communities. Central to this area is the settlement of Powell, where an Airfield and Powell Church serve as local landmarks. To the northwest, the town of Clinton sits near the river, while the TVA Forest Nursery occupies the Eagle Bend area, reflecting the regional influence of the Tennessee Valley Authority.
