The brick Campbell's Station Inn was built in 1810 and still stands on Kingston Pike within sight of the Farragut Town Hall.The original Farragut High School was built by the community in 1904, and moved to its current location in 1976.In early December 1979, the Knoxville City Council would vote to annex right-of-way acreage of I-40 in the Farragut area, prompting community residents to petition an incorporation election.Alderman Eddy Ford became mayor in 1993[11] and served in that position until April 2009, when he failed to win re-election, losing to Dr. Ralph McGill, another of the original founders of the town government.Farragut is situated in a hilly area between Blackoak Ridge to the north and the Tennessee River (Fort Loudoun Lake) to the south.The unincorporated community of Dixie Lee Junction lies along Kingston Pike, just across the Loudon County line.
