47pickles, ...along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'. We took a little bacon and we took a little beans to fight the bloddy British in the town of New Orleans...
We'd sing that song on our way to camp as a child.

I lived about 45 minutes away from where the three states meet. It's weird to have a question pertaining to a geographical location nearby.

47pickles, No. That song was about the battle of New Orleans. It was Fifteen Miles on the Comberland Gap.

Player #2740362, the Gap was basically formed by rising clashing mountains; the football-field-sized meteor just aided the erosion process for the Gap to grow. Well, at least that's how I'd put it without all the geographic and geological names and terms nobody would know (except a Kentucky grandma who grew up as all this was learned about the Gap's development)👵

Bristol, UK has the Cumberland Basin. A geological, small rocky area. Good clue to narrowing it down to a geological answer! Hahahahaha
Player #2740362
it's a gap formed by an ancient meteorite strike which allowed passage through the Appalachian mountain range.

47pickles, His song was 15 miles on the Cumberland Gap. Loved his music. Skiffle was all the rage when I was at art college.
