DATE: 02012024; Downey Mill Road offers beautiful stretches of Catoctin Creek riffling over ledges and sandbars, with cattle often grazing in the green fields across the creek. Here is a view from the road of the the restored miller’s house. The mill owner and the miller were almost always separate people in the operations of larger ‘merchant mills’. It is a classic piece of this region’s architecture. At one time, a small store was also here. The miller’s house today at Catoctin Mills. It is a private dwelling. (Photo by Douglas Graham)
