Across the Creek

Here is a look at the back of Kenan's Mill. The 1860's gristmill 
sits above Valley Creek, and this view is from the bank
 by the swinging bridge near the charcoal kiln. 
The mill operated until the 1970s, then was restored 
years later and is operated by the Selma-Dallas County
 Historic Preservation Society. Cornmeal was ground here
 during the recent Selma Pilgrimage.

...hi Janet., thanks for sharing this old mill, it's almost the spelling of my last name. I alway enjoy seeing a part of history being preserved. I hope that you will have another treasure to share.
