Blue Spring Heritage Center logo

In the early 1840's, Blue Spring Mill was built 300 feet downstream from the Spring, powered by the water to grind corn.

In 1903, a new mill was built combining a saw, grist and flour mill three stories high and also powered by water.

Although most of the building was removed in 1943, the turbine still remains as a reminder of days past.
