Gaston's Mill-Lock No. 36, Sandy and Beaver Canal District
Gaston's Mill-Lock No. 36, Sandy and Beaver Canal District, Historic mill and lock in Clarkson, United States.
Gaston's Mill and Lock No. 36 stand within Beaver Creek State Park, featuring a water-powered grist mill and restored canal lock from the 1830s.
The Sandy and Beaver Canal construction started in 1834, with Lock 36 being one of 90 locks that facilitated boat transportation through different elevation levels.
The mill played a central role in local agriculture, processing various grains into flour and supporting the economic development of Columbiana County.
The restored mill continues to produce whole wheat flour, corn meal, and buckwheat flour, demonstrating traditional milling techniques for educational purposes.
During the 1988 restoration, workers dressed in period clothing and used historical tools to reconstruct the lock's cantilevered wood-beam gates.
