For more than a century, the Thamesford Mill helped define the community’s identity, so much so it’s depicted on signs welcoming visitors. Megan Stacey reports on the fallout from the building’s demise.....Source

That's super disappointing. Was a very interesting place. :/

Bummer. I was hoping they would at least keep the main building.

Thats a bummer.. looked like a great place to have seen it live

“Everything has been dismantled, it hasn’t been destroyed. It was taken apart bit by bit.”


Uhhhhmm. Looking at the picture, I'm going to go ahead and call bullshit on that.

Oh boo. I upgraded my camera after going here and having serious malfunctions. Across the street lived a little old lady with the fattest little Dachshund you've ever seen named Peanut.

Damn! Tis a shame.

Too bad, this was a cool spot. when I was there I found some crazy shit being stored inside. Harley Davidson Parts and collectibles, hundreds of old autographed hockey cards, a snow-blower in excellent condition, a gold Harley Belt Buckle, I can't even remember all the stuff inside. Did anyone else see that stuff there?

Some internal shots... fun to climb
