Really good photos. B/W looks appropriate. Not usually my thing. How old is the mill?

The Glade Creek Grist Mill at Babcock is a new mill that was completed in 1976. Of special interest, the mill was created by combining parts and pieces from three mills which once dotted the state. The basic structure of the mill came from the Stoney Creek Grist Mill which dates back to 1890. After an accidental fire destroyed the Spring Run Grist Mill near Petersburg, Grant County, only the overshot water wheel could be salvaged. Other parts for the mill came from the Onego Grist Mill near Seneca Rocks in Pendleton County.

Nice photos, that is one place that was on my target list last year and I did not make it there! Maybe next spring! I love it in B&W.

That is a beautiful photo of one of my favorite subjects [https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-534400-2.html].
I'm with Delderby on this one, B&W really isn't "my thing" either. But given the nostalgic look of the mill and its setting, I like your shot.
