Old Mill’s Tale

Looming over the endless chorus of the Muskingum River — derived from the Shawnee word Mshkikwam, meaning swampy ground — the Stockport Mill still stands watch over this once important water route into the interior of Ohio.

The original mill was built in 1842; however, the current structure was later erected in 1906, and is the last remaining mill along the Muskingum. While its function as a mill has long since ended, it still operates as a restaurant and inn.
