Field Trip to Falls Mill

Our class went on a field trip to Falls Mill in Belvidere, Tennessee.



Falls Mill was built in 1873 as a cotton and woolen factory.  It has also been used as a cotton mill, woodworking shop, and grist mill.










We learned about animal tracks and pelts.




Here I am measuring the water temperature of the stream.  
It was 60 degrees.


It was very beautiful!




Here are some close up pictures of the power wheel at Falls Mill.

That's a long way down!
