Hagood Mill, Historic watermill in Pickens, South Carolina.
The Hagood Mill features a massive 20-foot diameter wooden water wheel that generates 22 horsepower through an overshot mechanism powered by Hagood Branch.
Built in 1845 by James Hagood, this water-powered gristmill remained in the Hagood family until 1966 and received National Register of Historic Places status in 1972.
The mill complex incorporates two historic cabins, a blacksmith shop, a moonshine still, and a cotton gin, representing traditional Appalachian crafts and industries.
Visitors can explore the mill from Wednesday to Saturday between 10 AM and 4 PM, with special events featuring live music and artisan vendors every third Saturday.
The Hagood Creek Petroglyph Site within the property contains Native American rock carvings that date back hundreds of years, displayed through narrated light presentations.
