Richardson's mill on Route 100 near Londonderry
Richardsons mill project along Route 100 in Londonderry features a moved barn housing a new waterwheel. The wheel will power a grist mill and other tools, with a small gift shop attracting visitors as Richardson pursues an eventual working mill on his property while a local family history is echoed in nearby plans at Williams College for a separate Moon barn reconstruction project.
