Wile Carding Mill

This water-powered mill was owned and operated by the Wile family from 1860 to 1968.

The Wiles ran the mill but employed a number of workers, usually unmarried women, to operate the machinery.

The mill was powered by a 7-horsepower (5 kW) overshot waterwheel using the water of Shady Brook, a tributary of the Lahave River.
