The walkway leads to the Old Mill Restaurant. The restaurant is located in Westminster, Massachusetts and is a favorite with tourists and locals alike. Today we went there for lunch with my wife's cousin and her husband who were visiting from Oklahoma. She wanted to visit the location of her parent's wedding reception.
An old abandoned mill in Orrtanna, Pennsylvania, has “ghost” signage dating it to 1837. The faded letters "Ortanna Roller Mill" can still be read across the front of the building. An old grinding stone is leaning against the wall at the foot of the front stairs.

An authentic reproduction of an old water-powered grist mill, this striking structure appears in the opening scene of the classic 1939 film Gone with the Wind and is believed to be the only building remaining from the film. Built in 1933; designed to look old so it would appear as if it was built the 1800s. The park is decorated with sculptures of toadstools, tree stumps, and a tree branch-entwined bridge that connects the mill to the rest of the park. Senor Dionico Rodriguez, a sculptor and artist of Mexico City, was responsible for all the details of each piece of concrete work made to represent wood, iron or stone, as well as the designing of the foot bridges and rustic seats. The Old Mill is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Spinningdale is a hamlet, in the Parish of Creich, on the north shore of the Dornoch Firth in eastern Sutherland, in the Highlands of Scotland. It lies 5 miles (8 kilometres) northeast of Bonar Bridge and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.
"Dale" is possibly from the Old Norse Dalr, meaning 'valley' but more probably from 'Dail' a Gaelic word for meadow or field and commonly found in placenames all over Scotland. It was referred to as "Spanigidill" in 1464, the pronunciation of which bears a close resemblance to modern Gaelic.
The A949 road, the old A9 before the 1991 opening of the Dornoch Firth Bridge, passes through Spinningdale.
On 1 February 2008 a fishing trawler named Spinningdale was wrecked on rocks near St Kilda.
Notable residents
James Robertson Justice, actor, lived in a cottage in Spinningdale from 1954 to 1970.
To avoid the myriad of branches here, I had to assume a rather precarious position over on the side of Mill Falls in Phelps, NY. Plus I took out quite a few small branches over on the right the rudimentary quasi-cloning tool that iPhoho on my iMac has. You can probably seek out the ghost branches if you have too much time on your hands.
NO INVITES OR ICONS PLEASE
This is a beautiful old mill I stumbled upon while exploring. Nestled beside a lively stream, the mill's red brick complements the flint walls of the neighboring building, which I believe is a part of the old town's historical architecture. It's a quaint, picturesque spot where you can hear the soothing sounds of water rushing by and see a glimpse of the town's heritage.
Tin Mill on Uxbridge Brook, Uxbridge, Durham Region, Ontario. This mill dates back to 1860 when it was a flour and grist mill. It made Merry Wives Pastry Flour, Five Crown and White Rose Bread. It was once powered by a water wheel which was at the back of the mill and when the Uxbridge brook was much deeper. The millrace ran from the Centennial Park pond. As with most of these mills, fire of course had to have its way. The mill was rebuilt in 1920. The mill was turned into a leather goods factory in 1946 and became the town tannery. Another fire ended the tannery business in the 1960s. The current owners bought the mill in 2006 and beautifully restored it by de-charring the original hand hewn beams. Today the Tin Mill restaurant and bar are located in the building and the décor hints at its mill beginnings everywhere. I had lunch there and the food and ambience was a delight. The building was named the tin mill after the recouped tin panels.
