State Route 56

Running 27.70 miles across Washington County, SR 56 leads east from State Line, Mississippi to the county seat of Chatom, where it meets SR 17. East from there, SR 56 concludes at U.S. 43 in Wagarville.
SR 56 was the original route for U.S. 84 between Chatom and U.S. 43 until in the 1950s.

Leading away from State Line, Mississippi, Alabama State Route 56 winds through pine forest and by a handful of houses to Chatom.
