Mountain Brook, AL The Old Mill T-Shirt by Hometown Heritage

Imagine spending the day riding horses with your friends before stopping in at a relaxing mill for a cup of tea. The Old Mill in Mountain Brook, Alabama was built just for that purpose. A replica of Perryman’s Mill (opened in 1870 and closed in 1887), the Old Mill is located on the same site as the earlier mill by the Jemison Company. Using the same mill stones as the original mill, the Old Mill features a stone fireplace and pegged floors and connects to Mountain Brook Parkway via a wooden bridge flanked by stone pillars built directly into the creek bed. When the creek is high enough, it’s able to turn the old-fashioned water wheel. In the 1920s, the tearoom officially opened, selling meals for less than two dollars and offering an assortment of crafts, but was forced to shut down during the Great Depression. Eventually turned into a private residence, the Old Mill can still be seen today and was adopted by the City of Mountain Brook in its official seal, with a historical marker being placed at the foot of the bridge in 2010.
