Laughlin's Mill



I actually went out and took a few pictures yesterday. Driving through Newville we stopped by the Mill. The mill was built around 1763 by William Laughlin across the Big Spring. Yes that's the same Big Spring I birdwalk on occasion. To run the grist mill he built a 6 1/2 foot dam that produces, like, 15 horsepower.
