Brief Description
Associated with the Nichols Co.’s Red Mill. Consists of the two single- and multi-family wood-frame houses located at the western end of Red Mill Lane. These were built and owned by the Nichols Co. and passed to the New York Net and Twine Co. when that firm purchased the mill in 1869. The single-family house at the eastern terminus of Red Mill Lane does not appear to have been built by the Nichols Co. but was likely associated with the mill at a later date.
