AKA - Rome - Built - c1775 by Moravians, 42X60,
2.5 stone mill.
From records of the Moravian Church the first grist
mill was of log built by the Moravian brothern in
1756. A fire in 1775 destroyed the mill and a new
3 story stone mill was immediately built. When the
new mill was built it was laid out by the cardinal
points of the compass, hence the name Compass Mill.
The mill was vacant in 1969 and was an antique
furniture store in 1994. Today it is used for
storage and still has some mill equipment inside.
Condition - Good
