Built in 1894, Alley Mill is one of the most photographed mills, if not places, in the state of Missouri....
Today, as part of Ozark National Scenic Riverways, Alley Spring offers its cool waters and tranquil atmosphere to all Americans. It is still very popular with local people who still camp, picnic and hold reunions at Alley. A hundred Springs and Falls have come and gone since Alley Mill first opened its doors. As a commercial mill, it went out of business over sixty years ago, but as the anchor for a community it remains firmly anchored in the rock of time and tradition....

This mill was built in 1909 to house the American Woolen Company. It now has a New Balance shoe assembly plant in it, but I don't think that takes up all this space. Parts of it are probably vacant, and I think all of it was vacant for many years. The clock tower (with a clock face second in size only to Big Ben, among all clock towers in the world) has become an icon of the city of Lawrence.
Harrington, Zorra Township, Oxford County, Ontario. Originally established in 1846 by D.L Demorest (an Empire Loyalist) as a water powered flour mill on Trout Creek.
In 1923, the mill (then owned by Robert Duncan) burned, and was replaced by this structure.
In 1903 the Harrington Mill pond dam collapsed. On Easter Sunday, April 17, 1949 it collapsed for the second time. People in the village stated that the pond drained in less than one hour.
The mill ceased operation in 1963 when Duncan sold it to the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority.

Rebuilt in its present form in 1848, there has been a mill here on the river Colne for many centuries. It was generally known as Hull's Mill and during the latter half of the nineteenth century was owned by the Metson family who also owned Tower mill and Cut Maple mill. After the First world war it was bought by Hovis Ltd. who installed an engine for flour milling but still used water power for grinding corn. When it was closed down in 1957 it wasone of the last country flour mills. More recently it has become known as Maplestead mill because although always considered a part of Sible Hedingham it is actually on the Great Maplestead side of the river. The mill building has been converted into a private dwelling but this attractive building and its mill pool can be seen from the public footpaths alongside the river and the road passing through the river ford.
It is kept up and maintained by the current residents with some help from ECC mills group.

Taken from the reception center up the lane. The old mill sports a fairly new coat of paint and a new roof, but little else changes over the years......exactly as it should be. I may have uploaded this picture before, but it was in a bunch of things I scanned yesterday so here it is again.This mill is located in Balmoral Mills (near Tatamagouche) Nova Scotia, Canada. It still operates in the summer as a museum. They make mighty fine oatmeal and buckwheat flour too. More info can be found here
Graue Mill and Museum, an operating waterwheel grist mill and homestead, is dedicated to maintaining a bridge between past and present generations in the belief that understanding our history is vital to our future. The Museum provides programs -- for school children and others -- that include milling, spinning and weaving and living history presentations, as well as artifacts which illustrate the way of life of area residents between 1850 and 1890 and the impact mills such as Graue Mill had on our culture.

- The original Christie Mill was destroyed by fire in the year 1900, demolished ca. 1925-30, and rebuilt by Christie park's Friends in 2004. The rebuilt mill stands today as a monument to times past - a story for today's children and youth. Here, school classes and others come to see how the grain was turned to flour in the "old days". The original mill was probably built around 1830, and was in daily use until ca. 1860. The rebuilt mill is as far as possible a copy of the mill that burned down ca. 1900 - built on houses of the original mill. Architect Gabor Szilvay drew the mill with a "China tilt" and other time-appropriate solutions from Christies time. The technical work is produced by Rune Revheim, Osterøy, and the mill stones were carved by Thorbjørn Løland from Hyllestad in Sogn -

The Farichild Milling grain complex on Merwin Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio. This is the last grain mill still operating in Cleveland. At one time, there were 13 active mills along the Cuyahoga River.
The first structure here was a six-story wood building erected about 1882. (That's the wood-clad structure.) Across Merwin Avenue to the northeast is a two-story brick building which served as Fairchild's headquarters, and which was built about the same time. Montana Flour Mills built a six-story brick building at the site in 1946. (That's the one to which the two grain elevators are attached.)
The complex has of two banks of grain elevators. One bank straddles the 1946 structure. On the north side is a tall silo in the west, with four newer and slightly shorter silos to the east of it. Another short silo is to the north of these. On the south side are two short silos. The other bank has 45 elevators in a five-by-nine configuration. The elevators were built by Fairchild Milling at a cost of $105,000 in 1936 and 1937.
Fairchild Milling Company was purchased by Montana Flour Mills in the 1940s, which in turn was bought by Cereal Food Processors -- which continues to own and operate the structure.
