Description
The mill was built on the Alcovy River between 1868 and 1879 by brothers John Griffin and Levi J. Loveless and was one of 1,262 water-powered mills in the state during that time. After the Loveless brothers ran the mill, W. Scott Freeman and his son, Winfield, owned it until it was purchased in 1915 by Newt Pharr. This picture was taken in the early 2000's. The Mill has since been restored by Gwinnett County and a 12-acre county park featuring the restored historic gristmill and a playground & multipurpose trail.
