Cook's Mill, Historic district in Greenville, United States.
The mill complex includes a two-and-a-half-story building with hand-hewn post-and-beam construction, featuring massive timbers connected through mortise and tenon joints.
The main mill building, constructed in 1857, stands on the stone foundation of an earlier mill from 1796, marking generations of industrial development in Monroe County.
The location near Cook's Station hosted the first recorded marriage in Monroe County between Phillip Hamman and Christina Cook in 1780.
The district encompasses multiple structures including the mill building, dam, mill pond, tail race, and stream that demonstrate the functional aspects of 19th-century milling operations.
The site connects to Phillip Hamman, who earned recognition as the Savior of the Greenbrier for warning settlements about an approaching attack in 1778.
