Geocache Description:

Millbrook Park is the historic ruins site of the E.A.Tracy Wool Extract and Shoddy Mill circa 1880-1929.


The ruins here are quite impressive. There are the stone ruins and two nearby brick buildings. There is signage to read to gather necessary information about the mill to complete this cache. From here it is a short walk through the park green, over the bridge, to the small woods trail.

To get coordinates for the final cache find the date anwers to these two questions.

When did the mill generate its own electricity? When was the first telephone installed?

Take the last two digits of each date and add them together.

Subtract this number from the last three numbers of 41 46.106 to get the North coordinates.

Subtract this number from the last three number of 72.18.170 to get the West coordinates.

The Millpond Park green area has picnic tables if you care to eat while you're here.
