The Milne Townsite, commonly referred to as Milnes, is an abandoned community in Strathy Township, municipality of Temagami, Nipissing District in northeastern Ontario, Canada, located on the north shore of Link Lake, just south of the Milne-Sherman Road, and about 2 km (1.2 mi) north of the town of Temagami.
In 1990, the province of Ontario bought and closed the mill in an effort to ease tensions concerning logging (see Red Squirrel Road).
[2] During this time the municipality of Temagami announced that another sawmill would be constructed sometime in the future.
[2] Adjacent to the Milne sawmill site is a band of fine to coarse grained pyroclastic material part of the Temagami Greenstone Belt.
[3] Because the pyroclastics are parallel to the Link Lake Deformation Zone, they contain a well-preserved foliation.
