Highlighted New Listing – February 3, 2012
Yamhill County, Oregon
Other Names: Barnekoff and Allyn's Flouring Mill, McMinnville Flouring Mill, Atlas Milling Co., Houck
Milling Co., Buchanan-Cellers Grain Co., Valley Feed & Supply. Buchanan Cellers
Outside of the historic downtown district, the Buchanan Cellers Mill, constructed in 1888, is one of McMinnville's oldest industrial/commercial buildings and one of only a handful of tangible reminders of the City's agricultural beginnings, specifically that a flour-milling business once flourished in McMinnville. Indeed the building is the last remaining, intact flour-mill building within the city limits. The building's status as an anchor of McMinnville's original industrial district has persisted as it now anchors the area (the Granary District) currently recognized for its commitment to locally owned and operated commercial, industrial, and agricultural businesses. As the city's sole remaining flour mill building, the continued presence of this building solidifies a piece of McMinnville's past amidst a changing economy and streetscape. The old flour-mill building looms tall in northeast McMinnville, its presence a comfort and constant. While change is imminent and guaranteed, the preservation of McMinnville's only remaining flour mill building is an essential link between the agricultural past and the emerging future.
The importance of the flour mill cannot be underestimated when considering the success and growth of a community like McMinnville. Since its beginnings as the Barnekoff and Allyn Flouring Mill, the Buchanan Cellers Mill has continued to operate in an agriculturally related industrial and/or commercial capacity while adapting to the needs of a growing and changing community. Although exterior additions and alterations were made, the historic Barnekoff and Allyn's Flouring Mill structure exists today almost in its entirety in the Buchanan Cellers Mill.
August 14, 2021 - A quick stop at Clifton Mill located in Clifton, Ohio "The Historic Clifton Mill is one of the largest water-powered grist mills still in existence. The first mill at this site was built in 1802 by Owen Davis, a Revolutionary War soldier and frontiersman miller. The mill was built in this location to take advantage of the natural power of the concentrated water funneled into the gorge. Owen Davis and his son-in-law, General Benjamin Whiteman also built a saw mill and a distillery. Soon a village known as Davis Mills sprang up. The Little Miami River powered five other mills that were built within a mile of Historic Clifton Mill: a woolen mill, saw mill, paper mill, barrel mill and another grist mill. Historic Clifton Mill is the only one still standing." Previous text from the following website: cliftonmill.com

Bodenham Mill
Pulaski, Tennessee
Listed 03/27/2013
Reference Number: 13000122
The Bodenham Mill is eligible for the National Register under criterion A for its local significance in commerce. Rebuilt ca.1930 in rural Giles County, the grist and flour mill served as the center of trade and activity within the community for twenty-five years. At the time the present mill was rebuilt, following loss by fire, Bodenham was already in the midst of a gradual decline, having lost its post office by 1914. Transportation in the area had improved as highways were completed, allowing farmers to travel to larger mills in cities like Pulaski, the county seat. Despite the decline, the Bodenham Mill survived for the next twenty-five years, serving a more localized region. Early in its history, the mill drew farmers from far distances; however, by the 1930s, the clientele was primarily smaller farmers who wanted more specialized, personalized services. The water-powered technology of the Bodenham Mill remained relatively unchanged since its original construction in the 1830s. However, the continued success of the mill allowed for the introduction of more advanced, and efficient equipment that survives within the building's interior. As such, the mill managed to keep pace with new milling techniques while retaining a smaller, personalized clientele in and around Bodenham. The present Bodenham Mill operated ca.1930 to ca.l955. The building retains a large degree of its historic and architectural integrity.

Cley, Norfolk, is a favourite spot for bird watching. We went with an RSPB group, but I concentrated on the marsh landscape and on the village. The old grain mill is now a restaurant.

The Lybster Mill, constructed between 1860-6, became one of the largest and a pioneer in the cotton industry in the early days of the Dominion of Canada. The building would become home to a paper mill in the early 20th Century operated by Lincoln Paper Mills and Howard Smith Paper Mills. In 1961 Domtar would operate the plant and expand the operations surrounding the historic mill with modern buildings, operating in the location until 2002. During the extensive cleanup of Merritton area in 2002 the Domtar buildings were demolished and the original 1866 mill restored and today is home to a boutique hotel and Italian restaurant.

The mill at the other end of the Mill Run in the west reaches of Cades Cove in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Some of the cedar looked positively new (and reddish) while the red looked wonderfully old and weatherered (and very grey). In the world of black and white this is not an issue. The mill wheel was not spinning when I took the image but it had been going just a moment earlier - it's still a working mill a few minutes out of every day.
Constructed in 1857 on the Upper Iowa River in the "old town" area of Lime Springs, Iowa. Along with grinding grain, it also provided hydroelectric power for the area. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Pelham Mill Park History
The Greenville County Historic Preservation Commission donated this 13 acre site bordering the Enoree River to the District in 1988. It was home to the first textile mill in Greenville County outside of the city limits of Greenville. It’s location, near the Hwy 14 I-85 interchange, position it to be a potential gateway to Greenville. The scenic and historic elements parallel that of downtown’s Falls Park.
Today, in partnership with the Western Carolina Regional Sewer Authority, seven acres have been added to the park. Its focal point is a masonry dam and overlook where visitors can view architectural remains of the mill and the cascading shoals of the Enoree.
The master plan envisions a passive park with picnic sites, historical interpretation, dog park, and a walking bridge spanning the river that provides access to scenic trails along the Enoree.
The former Pelham Mill Post Office, built circa 1870, was moved to the park when Hwy. 14 was widened. Western Carolina Regional Sewer Authority is restoring the historic structure for use as a community building.
Pelham Mill is recognized by the Greenville County Historic Preservation Commission as one of 11 historic sites in the County.
