This used to be quite a little industry. There was a sawmill, gristmill, cotton gin, wood corder, blacksmith shop, general store, and hotel. The mill closed in the 1950's but I understand it's still functional and it runs twice a year when they hold arts and crafts festivals on the property.

I have seen a lot of these types of buildings in parts of WVa and Ohio and Indiana....interesting that they represent a part of life that is really no more isn't it?
I like this building! :) I would love to go in and do some exploring sometime. By the way, I noticed the different look to your site - very nice! :)
I bet the art and craft Festivals are a great day out. :o)
Are all buildings in you place made of wood, or at least the most?
You changed the layout and it works, to make a frame around the photo and a background is much more complicated. But you can always change the background colors etc.
can't see the photo..guess the bucket does not go to galla creek.
Can see the new look...
I wonder why you can't see the photo. I don't have a clue.
Yeah, when I came back this morning the picture from today and yesterday are no longer viewable.
The picture seems fine to Old Womtig here in the UK...
I like the look of these old mills, and I could spend some time rummaging around there, thats for sure.
I'll be back later...pictures are a no show right now :(
I see you know everything about templates now. Very good and I like the layout.
Thanks Dick! It was a few things you told me that helped me to catch on.
Buildings over here are made of different things. I guess it depends where they are and what is available to build with.
Nice photo. I am glad it still works. We need more examples of yesteryear.
Thanks for your visits to my blogs.

A taste of the past, Dot.
I could not see the picture this morning. I was gone all day with church, a baptism and more church. Tonight I am able to see the picture. Nice old building. I am sure when some look at this building they could tell some old stories about it.
