I absolutely love photos like this, showing the water next to the mill. Hydroelectric power!

This Mill was built in 1845, renovated in the mid 1980s, and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. It’s in the same Metopark as the Silver Bridge photo I posted a few days ago. It still operates and you can buy ground corn, wheat, and buckwheat produced there.
