Walton Road - Old Burnt Stand

Transportation
12
Walton Road generally follows the course of the Old Walton Road, completed in 1801 and connecting present-day Kingston and Carthage. Along this principal land route between east and middle Tennessee, wagons carried settlers west, and stages carried passengers and mail. An inn once stood on this site, and after it burned, the area became known locally as "Old Burnt Stand Place."
