History

You can find this water-powered mill in the heart of Bridgewater in the Wile Carding Mill Museum. This machine revolutionized carding by preparing wool from loads of sheep fleece.

This museum includes the Heritage Gallery and an exhibit of arts and community, an extraordinary collection of natural history and growth around Bridgewater and Lunenburg County. A great place to learn about the history of wool and the machinery process.
