About this map

The Whitwell valley and the adjacent Cumberland Plateau are captured here during a period of industrial transition. The Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis railroad serves as a central artery for the region, supporting a coal-driven economy evidenced by a prominent Coal Chute and several Incline rail segments climbing the steep plateau slopes. Near the Sequatchie River, traditional landmarks like Ketner Mill and Lane Chapel anchor the rural landscape.
