This mill, erected by Albert Dart in 1868, has the most dramatic setting of any mill in Rockville--perched on the high rock shelf at the second millseat down from Snipsic Lake. Dart first used the mill for spinning silk, then added shoddy production. Cyrus White bought the mill in 1870, continuing shoddy production and adding manufacture of cotton warps. In the late l870s White ran six sets of cards for his woolen operation and 4,800 cotton spindles, as well as renting space to the textile firms of J.J. Regan and J.A. Smith and Son. Belding Brothers and Co. bought the mill in 1909. (Roth)
