Adams Mill

USA / Indiana / Rossville /
 NRHP - National Register of Historic Places, 1840s construction, grist mill
Built in 1845, Adams Mill was a grist mill producing assorted grades of flour for more than 100 years. Commercial milling ceased in the 1950s, but much of the machinery is still operational. The mill is a prime example of post and beam construction common among agricultural structures in Indiana in the 19th Century. Hand-hewn timbers form the framework held together with shaved wooden pegs. The posts and beams are made from walnut; the joists are from oak. All of the lumber was harvested locally and cut and shaped on site.
