How to Use This Arthur, Tennessee Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Arthur, Tennessee. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Tennessee or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Arthur.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Arthur emerges from the landscape as a quiet convergence of limestone soil and deep, verdant hollows. It lies 4.9 miles north-northwest of Claiborne, TN (from Claiborne, TN: bearing 336°T), and is situated 4.7 miles south-southeast of Middlesborough. Gap Creek carves a persistent path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the heavy, humid light that lingers over the valley floor long after the sun has dipped toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. To the west, the land rises into the dense, shadowed timber of Kentucky Ridge State Forest, while the nearby basin of Carr Hollow offers a reprieve from the steeper inclines that define the local topography. Arthur Lake remains a silent, reflective presence just a short distance away, its stillness contrasting with the subtle, constant movement of the creek as it drains the surrounding slopes.

Development in Arthur has long been dictated by the stubborn, rich earth and the rhythms of the seasons. The local economy maintains a steady, modest pace, anchored by agricultural legacies and the labor of those who manage the surrounding acreage. To the north, the expansive tracts of the Tackett Creek Wildlife Management Area serve as a wild, untamed buffer, preserving the dense thickets and limestone bluffs that have defined this region for generations. Residents often traverse the Ridge Trail to gain a vantage over the valley, watching as the afternoon clouds gather against the horizon. The character of Arthur is found in these slow, deliberate shifts in the weather and the enduring connection between the people and the land they cultivate.

About This Arthur Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Arthur, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.548137, -83.670746. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Arthur includes the ZIP code (37724, 37707), telephone area code (865), county seat of Claiborne County (Tazewell), and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
