Geocache Description:

Another cache to help you with your "31 Days of Caching in August!"


"This area was first called "Jones' Mill Place" after John Jones who built the first mills here in 1768. He died here in 1772 and his family fled to Canada at the start of the Revolutionary War. Edward Patten rebuilt the sawmill, following the war and built a gristmill here in 1801"

A quick park and grab cache near a locally historic site.  The hide is pretty traditional and predictable so it shouldn't give any problems.  I found it best to park just west of the bridge and walk back to the cache.  There is a historical marker sign near by as well as a pretty view of Halway Creek from the cache site too. 

Cheers!
