Richland Creek is a stream in the western part of Nashville, Tennessee, in Davidson County.[1] It winds for 28 miles (45 km) through the Nashville suburbs of Belle Meade and Forest Hills[2] and eventually flows into the Cumberland River near Rock Harbor Marina at the end of Robertson Avenue.[3] This is one of at least five streams by the name of "Richland Creek" in various regions of Tennessee.[1]
