Prallsville Mills, Stockton, New Jersey

In the small town of Stockton NJ

along the Delaware River Canal

you will find an old mill.

I stopped in for a visit.

These blue signs indicate the early use of the buildings.

The earliest date is 1711 for the Grist Mill!

Below is a millstone used for grinding grains.

They can weigh tons!

The water rushes from the canal into the mill.

Here water flows from the canal back into the river.

I noticed they have been updating the canal controls since the last time I visited.

I sort of like the look of the old lock controls,

but I guess they are impractical by today's standards.

Here is the same lock  last year.
