2019 Map of Westmoreland

About this map

Westmoreland sits at a critical intersection of modern and historic transit routes on this upland plateau, where the Austin Peay Hwy and Old Hwy 52 meet. The landscape is deeply dissected by numerous hollows, such as Stillhouse Hollow, Sugar Camp Hollow, and Saltpeter Cave Hollow, indicating a history of diverse land use from traditional distilling to cave resource extraction. Small rural communities like Siloam, Eulia, and Wixtown are scattered across the terrain, often anchored by historic family cemeteries including Millers Chapel Cem and the Walden-Walrond Cem. The drainage pattern is defined by the headwaters of Trammel Cr and Bledsoe Cr, which have shaped the movement of people across the Sumner and Macon county line for generations.
