Down by the old Mill Stream by Meezer3



Old Roller Mill in Mansfield, Indiana The Mansfield Roller Mill or Mansfield Mill is a (gristmill) that was built in Mansfield, Indiana, United States by James Kelsey and Francis Dickson in 1820; it has always run on water power from Big Racoon Creek. The original mill was a 30-foot (9.1 m) by 30-foot (9.1 m) log building. According to legend, glacial stones from a nearby farm were used for grinding. In the mid-19th century a sash saw mill and a carding mill were added to the grist mill. The mill is a state historic site still in operation. The Mansfield Roller Mill now runs by water turbine engines. via 500px http://j.mp/1pDJNL4
