Whitaker's Mill / Duncall Mill
Take Bus US 1 south from Bel Air to Connelly Rd. Turn right on Connelly Rd, which will turn into Whitakers Mill Rd. Drive almost 2 miles to the mill on the left just before crossing the Winter's Run Creek.
The 1851 stone grist mill at 1210 Whitaker's Mill Road is the private residence of Elizabeth Hicks.
The mill is hard to photograph because of competing shrubbery.
Close-up of the date stone on a gable end wall. The mill was also known as Duncall Mill, as was the immediate locality.
Either the inlet or outlet arch of the mill where the raceway either entered or departed the mill.
The sign says it all. Remember, to respect private property. Please get permission before taking pictures and wander the property.
Notice the three staggered rows of snow tees on the roof edge. They are to keep snow from sliding off the roof in one great massive avalange, thus a safety feature to prevent injury to some unsuspecting person under the eaves.
