Burwell-Morgan Mill
- Also Known As: Millwood Mill
- Address: At jct of Rtes. 723 and 255
The Burwell-Morgan Mill is a two-story structure with gable roof and consists of a down slope basement and first level of stone topped by a frame second story and attic addition. The mill, approximately forty-five feet by sixty feet, has small eight-over-eight as well as twelve-over-eight sash windows with segmental arched lintels on the first floor while the frame section has twelve-over-eight sash. The attic is lighted on the gable ends by eight-over-eight sash windows on two levels. The head race has been reopened in the present restoration and enters the building from the west by a stone flume. After pouring over the rebuilt water wheel of Peruvian mahogany, the water is channeled under a fifteen foot stone barrel vault to the tailrace. The gears that run the mill machinery were taken from a mill built circa 1750 near Middleburg and rebuilt. These gears rotate the turn stone over the bed stone in the two pairs of Buhrs (millstones) --one for corn and one for wheat. The plaster remaining on two adjacent stone walls around a comer fireplace on the first level indicate the location of the old mill office which will be rebuilt. In the restoration, the empty second story will be used as a meeting place of the Clarke County HistoricaL Society. - NRHP, 12 August 1969
