Norton Mill

Norton Mill located in Big Ridge State Park has recently been restored by the Park Service. The original was built by Tink McCoy on Lyon's Spring Branch in 1825. The mill was sold to the Lewis Norton family who operated the mill for thirty years until 1936 when the property was aquired by TVA.
