Directions


Pictures by: Jimj Miller 10/31/1987 - Massive fieldstone,sandstone,limestone combination structure of 3.5 stories measuring approx. 45x55 feet. Part of a section of the south wall appears to have been repaired or a shed of three story height had been removed. Interesting red cross-like design in a circle between third door and the gable end catshead. A stone dated 1819 is in the building wall. Saucon Cr. flows behind the structure and originally powered the mill. In November 1987, the mill was still being used for corn drying and storage on the farm of which it is a part. Very, very good shape in 1987.
