At the SE edge of Mariett, Ga., on US 41/Sh 3/Cobb Parkway, take the Barclay Circle exit off US 41 just past exit for Sh 280/S.Cobb Dr. leading through Dobbins AFB. Take Barclay Circle onto Life university Campus. The mill is on the left side of Barclay Circle in the 19th Century Historic Village just prior to the Skywalk over Barclay Circle. The mill is at the bottom of the waterfalls on Rottenwood Creek.
This mill was purchased from J. T.. Lefler, owner of the Pine Run Mill in Hinesville, Virginia and the Pine Run Mill was moved to the campus of Life University.
It was once converted to run on power from an automobile engine. It has been restored to its original, water power specifications and is installed on campus along the Rottenwood Creek as part of a 19th century village.
The mill, which includes the mill stones, wooden gears, and the building itself, was last operated 50 years ago.
The mill has been relocated to the campus of Life University, Marietta, Ga. on US Hwy 41 north of Atlanta, Georgia
