A private tour for up to ten people of the Mill at Anselma, a National Historic Landmark, including a gift box featuring the mill's stone ground flour and cornmeal.

     Nestled along the Pickering Creek in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, the Mill at Anselma is an extraordinary artifact of 250 years of Chester County’s industrial heritage. Constructed c. 1747 by Samuel Lightfoot, the Mill retains its original Colonial-Era power train, as well as multiple layers of industrial equipment ranging from the late 1700s to the mid 1900s. The Mill and the village of Anselma demonstrate how eighteenth-century technology was adapted to serve the prosperity of the Industrial Revolution and the challenges of the Great Depression.
     Through the efforts of The Mill at Anselma Preservation and Educational Trust, this nationally significant grist mill site has been restored and returned to operation for the enjoyment of families, schoolchildren, tourists and scholars. Come share in our enthusiasm as we bring alive  the story of America's technological past and the lives of the people that shaped it.
