The 4 bay, 2 story frame grist mill was built in 1839 along the Choccolocco Creek in then Benton County, Alabama. Not certain who built the mill, but Peter Heifner bought 1,000 acres in 1840 extending from Choccolocco Cr. on US 78 back to the mountains. The mill is quite possibly on this section of land. His desendants, Rhodes, Heifners and Riddles still live in the this White Hall area.

The mill sits on 3 acres along Choccolocco Creek. Choccolocco is an Indian word, chahko- meaning "shoals", and lago meaning "big" or a shallow creek with big shoals.

A kitchen, foyer, a bath, dining room and living room with fireplace on the first floor, there are 4 bedrooms and a bath on the second floor, and office, library & fireplace, and half bath on the third floor. A total of 3,000 sq.ft. inside , with railed deck on three sides and a gazebo, play apparatus with plenty of parking.

The Choccolocco Creek can be seen behind the mill converted to a residence. The mill is for sale, there having been only about three owners since it was a working grist mill.
