Existing comment: Lyons Mill

Named for owner and miller, Evan Lyons, this mill was located across from the present day Oak Hill Cemetery. It was the earliest mill built along Rock Creek (1780). Operating until 1875, the mill later became a popular spot for barn dances and picnics until the early 1900s. In 1913, the mill collapsed and its ruins were removed for road and trail construction.
