Tour the interior of the Thompson-Neely Grist Mill and learn how 18th-century mills contributed to the Revolution and life in the United States.

The mill is near the grounds of the Thompson-Neely House, which served as a temporary regimental army hospital during Washington’s winter campaign of 1776-77. Once the centerpiece of a working farm and milling complex, the house is surrounded by outbuildings typical of 18th century farm life, including a smokehouse, chicken coop, and grist mill. Due to renovation work at the Thompson-Neely House, access to the house grounds is limited at this time.

The Thompson Neely Grist Mill is located near the corner of Rt. 32 (River Road) and Aquetong Road, a few miles south of New Hope, PA. Tours begin at the Wildflower Preserve’s “event parking lot” parking lot highlighted on the map found under the booking link.
