The 50'X 70' mill, built in 1832 bt Tomas G. Henderson, Replaced two earlier successive mills on the same site. The 3.5 story limestone mill, with attic and a small central cupola, was still in operation as late as 1969 and the dam and mill pond are still there. In the 1980's through the 1990's, the mill was known as "The Knittery", a retail store for knit sweaters and such.

Some machinery that still exists in the mill, this piece being a flour bolter / sifter.

A row of roller mills left from the days of flour production. The old machinery in place gave the retail knit goods store an added feeling of authenticity.

Daniel Cookson built the first mill on this site, a log mill, in 1729. Cookson's widow sold to John Douglas sometime before or near 1758. The mill then metriculated to John Douglas Jr. in 1766. In 1766, Douglas sold to Matthew Henderson who built the first stone mill on the site encompasing 36'X 45' all in one story. John Henderson owned the mill from 1807 thru 1825; then in 1864, T. G. Henderson ran the mill, selling to Ruben Martin in 1875. John Stauffer gave the mill one of the names it is known by when he acquired it in 1899.
