Backroads





This is the old Edwards Mill in Taylors, SC, one of the few remaining mills in the area. We have come across several old mills that are still standing in one form or another, a few with mill wheels still in place. It's clear that our rivers and streams used to provide a lot of power for industry in the area and used to be higher and fuller than they now are. This mill appears to be in the process of being preserved.



The origianl photograph (left) has been digitally "painted" to add to the aged and rough look.
