Historic Clifton Mill

Historic Clifton Mill is one of the largest water powered grist mills still in existence. Built in 1802, the mill was originally called Davis Mill by it's founder Owen Davis. The Clifton Mill was built in this location to take advantage of the natural power of the concentrated water funneled into the gorge. The tiny village of Clifton was laid out around the milling industry. The Little Miami river that powers the Clifton Mill today, once powered 5 other mills that were built within a mile of the Clifton Mill. These mills included a linen mill, saw mill, paper mill, cork/barrel mill and more. The Clifton Mill is the only one still standing.
