1955 Map of Viola

About this map

The town of Viola serves as the hub for this mid-century topographic record, which details the complex interface between the Highland Rim and the rising Cumberland Plateau. The landscape is defined by deep hollows and coves, including Solomon Hollow and Northcutts Cove, which carve into the eastern heights of Ben Lomond Mtn. Settlement patterns follow the valley floors near Hickory Creek, with a notable density of rural institutions that mark the social fabric of the era.
