The Rohrbach Mill ruins are all that are left of the 1869 2.5 story stone mill built on the site of the former Haag Mill.
This mill is just upstream of the Grim's Grist Mill and Halpins Cider Mill. GPS: 40' 28.24'N, 75' 43.91'W ele. 554'/169 meters Manatawny Quadrangle
The mill is situated on Sacony Creek at Salley Ann Furnace Road, about 500' downstream of where Little Sacony Creek joins with Sacony Creek.
The miller's house, built in 1869 also by Jacob & Catherine Rohrbach, is across Smoketown Road from the mill with Carl's Hill Road running south off the right side of the picture. Apparently a later owner of the mill property was a Dr. C. D. Dent.
