2022 Map of Westplains

About this map

Westplains and the surrounding reaches of Graves County are defined by the winding course of the West Fork Clarks River and the high ground of the Tennessee Valley Divide. This 2022 survey details a landscape where agricultural roots remain deep, evidenced by the high concentration of family cemeteries and rural congregations such as Old Spring Creek Church of Christ Cem and Spence Chapel United Methodist Church Cem. The map illustrates the transition from the municipal influence of Mayfield and the Mayfield-Graves County Airport in the southwest to the smaller, unincorporated communities of Clear Springs and Hicksville in the east. Local history is etched into the names of the numerous small waterways like Panther Cr and Trace Cr that drain the fertile Casey Bottoms.
