Just a few pictures from historic Black Rock Mill in Germantown, MD. This is owned by MCPS and is open to the public during daylight hours. There are also hiking trails all around it since it sits within the parks system. This is a very large structure and is one of the best preserved old mills in Montgomery County. It also sits directly alongside a creek and the interior of the building has flood markers on the walls. At least one flood took over 2/3 of the building.
These photos were taken in July 2012.
The "front". You can walk down the wooden walkway and look inside.
