How to Use This Ashland, Tennessee Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ashland, 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 Ashland.

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.

Ashland rests firmly within the quiet contours of the middle Tennessee landscape, where the land unfolds in a series of gentle, undulating slopes. It lies 10.3 miles west-southwest of Lewis, TN (from Lewis, TN: bearing 246°T), and is situated 9.7 miles north-northeast of Waynesboro. The Minnow Branch cuts a narrow, winding path through the local terrain, offering a steady, rhythmic pulse to the surrounding woods and fields. Rand Hollow cradles much of the immediate geography, creating a localized basin that captures the amber light of late afternoon. To the north, the elevation rises toward the modest prominence of Bald Knob, which punctuates the horizon with its weathered silhouette. For those seeking the deeper quiet of the woods, the verdant canopy of Lewis State Forest provides a sprawling refuge just a few miles away. The earth here is firm and ancient, holding the stillness of the interior country in every shadowed fold.

Ashland maintains a legacy defined by the slow, deliberate work of those who first cleared its timber and turned its soil. The local economy has long drawn its strength from the fertile character of the regional farmland, which supports a tradition of careful cultivation and stewardship. Industry has evolved in rhythm with the broader shifts of the state, moving from early agrarian roots toward a modern landscape of small-scale commerce and local enterprise. Daily labor remains tethered to the cycles of the seasons, maintaining a continuity that feels both grounded and persistent. Visitors often find that the pulse of the local trade reflects the steady, unadorned nature of the people who reside here. Even as the decades pass, the fundamental focus on self-reliance and community cooperation remains the primary engine of progress.

Ashland carries a distinct cultural weight, defined by a spirit of neighborliness that avoids the clamor of larger metropolitan centers. Life moves with a reflective pace, often marked by the simple gathering of friends in public spaces or the quiet observance of regional traditions. Residents find solace in the accessibility of Lewis State Forest, a place where the density of the trees offers a sanctuary from the complexities of the modern world. While no singular monument dominates the skyline, the collective history of the families who have called the area home serves as a living landmark. The atmosphere is quiet, favoring the sound of wind through the brush over the artificial noise of crowded thoroughfares. This is a place where the passage of time is measured not by grand events, but by the subtle, enduring changes in the light as it falls across the fields.

About This Ashland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ashland, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.436186, -87.667522. 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 Ashland includes the ZIP code (38485), telephone area code (901), county seat of Wayne County (Waynesboro), 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.
