Abstract

This collection contains a 1974 photograph of a stringboard in the stairway in Linchester Mill, Caroline County, Maryland and depicts a ship drawn in wood.

Administrative History

Linchester Mill is a historic grist mill located at Preston in Caroline County, Maryland, United States. It was built about 1840 and is a 2 1/2-story frame building sided in red-painted weatherboard and roofed with raised-seam metal. It is four bays long and two bays deep, with a two-story lean-to addition. The mill ceased operation in 1974, but houses an exceptionally complete collection of milling machinery dating from the 19th century to the mid-20th century. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.
