Hoffman / Lebo Mill
Follow Sh 114 north for about 8 miles to the junction with Pa 225 just north of Matamoras. Turn left for 0.15 miles to Powells Valley Rd., which will turn into Enterline Rd. Turn right onto Powells Valley Rd and drive for 4.8 miles to Lebo Rd /T 446 . Turn right onto Lebo Rd. and go 0.3 miles to the mill on the right.
The mill name is unknown as is the date built also. An old atlas listed the owner of the stone miller's house across Lebo Road, just visible in photo, as Johnathon Hoffman at that time.
The rear of the mill with large opening in the foundation/first story through which the next interior photo was taken from the road.
Interior photo of basement level showing pulleys, belts,lineshafts and support posts of the mill's first story.
A sign in the county park beside the mill lists a person by the name of Lebo donating land for the park, hence the other possible name of Lebo for the mill.
A guess of the mid-late 1800s for the mills construction should be fairly acurate. GPS for the Hoffman mill is 76' 50.27W, 40' 27.47N.
