History and architectural features

Built in 1814, this historic building is a two- to three-story, limestone structure, that is five bays by three bays with a gable roof. The mill was rebuilt in 1909. The former miller's house is a two-and-one-half-story, stucco-coated, stone, conservative Italianate-style building with a hipped roof. The limestone end barn was built between 1798 and 1815, and features a high-pitched gable roof. [2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. [1]
