THE DAM POND GRIST MILL

Apparently the Tidal Grist Mill at Dam Pond was built by the Bailey family in the early 1800’s and was in operation for nearly a hun-dred years. The water wheel at Dam Pond was considerably larger than some of the other mill wheels. It appears from this photo that vertical batter-boards were inserted along the bridge and formed a dam that diverted the tidal flow in and out through the waterwheel sluiceway. As one can see also from this picture, the mill building was a sizeable structure.

A painting of the Goldsmith’s Inlet Millby Cora Emma Cline, 1858-1940.
