Nolensville

Tennessee


A cluster of antique shops and down-home restaurants bring visitors by the carload to the historic district of this bustling hamlet. Hugging Nolensville Rd between Nashville and Murfreesboro, it's a pleasant shopping and lunch stop on the way back to Nashville from Stones River National Battlefield.
