Historic Gambrill Mill Dam Ruins at Monocacy N.B., February 8, 2008
This project will provide emergency stabilization of the ruins of the dam associated with the historic ca. 1830 Gambrill Mill. The ruins are situated approximately one mile southeast of the mill structure, on Bush Creek. The dam was constructed to divert water from the creek along a mill race constructed for the purpose of powering the mill¿s water wheel. Gambrill Mill was in operation until around 1897, and the race was subsequently filled in. However, a considerable amount of physical evidence of the Mill Dam Ruins and Mill Raceway exist with mortared masonry wall sections extant.
