Lyman Mill Pond

LINK to a GazetteNet story about the year 2022 removal of the dam. In 2016 a part of the dam was taken out and the Lyman Mill Pond drained. The Manhan River in the portion is now returning to its natural state.

The Lyman Mill on the former dam is from 1854 and is a grist mill. The current dam that was just removed is from 1938. The first dam in this area was in the 1732 and powered a sawmill. The dam was about 8 feet high and 40 feet wide.

The mill is now in the Lockville Historic District.
