Easton Roller Mill
Steam driven grist mill, built ca. 1870 by Henry Koontz, could grind 120 bu. of grain daily. Stone burrs were replaced with iron rollers in 1894, improving output and quality, and representing peak technological development for a local flour mill. Several owners operated mill before changes in marketing and consumer habits, coupled with reduced local grain supply, forced closing in 1930.
Marker is at the intersection of Easton Mill Road (County Highway 17) and Mileground Road (U.S. 119), on the right when traveling east on Easton Mill Road.
