The Mill Pond is a double-EP album by American fingerstyle guitarist and composer John Fahey, released in 1997.

The release is a notable entry in Fahey's discography in that it features experimental music in the noise and drone styles.

The Mill Pond was originally released as a double 7" vinyl record.

Stewart Mason states in his Allmusic review: "... a frustratingly inconsistent minor work that's primarily of interest to hardcore John Fahey fans and students of the 1990s noise rock underground.

"[1] Dusted Magazine critic Bill Meyer wrote "No matter how you look at it, The Mill Pond is not a peak of John Fahey’s career... the music amongst the strangest and, in places, ugliest of his career.
