About this map

Sardis and Hinkle anchor this agricultural landscape in southeastern Henderson County, where the terrain is defined by a network of engineered waterways and natural drainages. Modern channelization is evident in the presence of the Hurricane Creek Canal, Middleton Creek Canal, and Alexander Creek Canal, which run alongside traditional meandering streams like Big Hurricane Creek and Flats Creek. This system of canals suggests a history of significant land management to support the rural economy.

Local history is preserved at Mcbride Cemetery and Spring Hill Cemetery, while smaller rural clusters like Hickory Flats and Center Point Lula dot the western edge. The presence of the Middle Tennessee Agricultural Station in the northeast near Cedar Grove further underscores the region's dedication to land use. To the east, Presley Ridge rises as a distinct topographic feature overlooking the drainage basins.
