2019 Map of Winchester

About this map

Winchester serves as the focal point of this Franklin County landscape, where the urban grid meets the winding waters of Tims Ford Lake and Boiling Fork Creek. The area is defined by a dense concentration of historical burial sites, including the Winchester City Cem, the Decherd Negro Cem, and the uniquely named Wallis-Estill-Hayden-March Cem. To the north and east, the rail lines of CSX Transportation link the industrial and residential hubs of Decherd and Cowan, tracing the base of the Cumberland Plateau foothills. The transition from the valley floor to the elevations of Penile Hill and Little Mtn highlights the local topography. Aviation history is also represented through the Winchester Municipal Airport and King Airport, while small settlements like Estill Springs and Asia maintain their distinct positions within the rural-industrial network of middle Tennessee.
