Grist Mill
The Grist Mill was built by Hezekiah Mann in 1810 and operated by Sidney B. Weer. Restoration was completed in 1977. The mill is powered by a breast water wheel 17 feet in diameter and 6.5 feet wide. The three mill stones are used to grind flour and livestock feed. The flour is sifted by an eighteen foot bolter. The second floor contains the transmission room and a pattern shop. The old dam has been replaced by a 170 foot dam 16 feet high.
