The Historic Clifton Mill is one of the largest water-powered grist mills still in existence. The first mill at this site was built in 1802 by Owen Davis, a Revolutionary War soldier and frontiersman miller. The mill was built in this location to take advantage of the natural power of the concentrated water funneled into the gorge.
Thousands of years ago ice sheets and glaciers descended on Ohio, but thanks to Campbell Hill (Ohio's High Point), the glaciers were forced to split into two lobes. The resulting valley in-between became a massive channel for glacial melt-water, funneling the water south to carve one of Ohio's most majestic geologic features: Clifton Gorge. Don't miss it!
