1955 Map of Scottsboro

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Cumberland River defines this mid-century landscape of Davidson County, winding through dramatic loops like Whites Bend, Cockrill Bend, and Bells Bend. A notable concentration of community life is found in Scottsboro, where the Scottsboro Mission and Wade Sch serve the local population near the river's north bank. Across the water, the sprawling grounds of the State Penitentiary occupy a significant portion of the peninsula, marking a stark contrast to the surrounding agricultural and rural residential patterns.
