Remarkable mill on old Taunton road with many uses
A Boston Globe correspondent recalls a unique Taunton area mill built about fifty years ago by Josiah King then owned by William Pierce. The low building houses a mill, woodworking and cider-making rooms, a church and social hall, with elder making and cheese-like meals from local grain. The piece recounts anecdotes of temperance, praying and a dramatic cider prank, ending with a reflection on the mill’s enduring presence and a tragic child’s funeral.
