More than two centuries of Dover s mills
Quick question for y’all. What has been significant in Dover for 209 years and still important today? Hint. You walk or drive by this important part almost every day. Yay, congratulations. Yes, it is the mills! In one iteration or another, the mills have been a part of the life blood of the community since 1812.
Many locals know there is a story, but most don’t know a lot (we’re talkin’ hundreds of years). Next Tuesday will be your opportunity to learn about this important part of the seventh-oldest continual settlement in the United States. You will then be able to wow your friends, neighbors and visiting family with tales of protests, fires, floods and even dung baths (yes, dung baths). On Tuesday, May 11, the Dover 400th committee will be presenting the next in its series of the history of Dover.
