Colonial Gristmill

Delaware County · dedicated 1959 · Baltimore Pike (US 1) at Cheyney Rd., 1 mile E of Concordville

The stone gristmill at this site was built in 1704 by Nathaniel Newlin, a Quaker who emigrated from Ireland in 1683. The mill, restored to working order, is a fine example of a vital segment of Colonial economic life.
