Sanford Mills Historic District
Sanford Mills Historic District, Industrial heritage site in Sanford, United States.
The Sanford Mills Historic District features fourteen historic buildings along the Mousam River, including structures made of wood, brick, and concrete.
Thomas Goodall established the textile manufacturing operation in 1867, producing mohair fabrics and employing local workers until the Burlington Mills Corporation closure in 1955.
The district represents the evolution of industrial architecture from wood-frame construction before 1890 to brick and concrete structures after 1910.
The complex spans 7.5 acres and is bordered by Washington Street, Weaver Drive, Emery Street, and Pioneer Avenue in central Sanford.
The Mousam River, which flows through the district, supported industrial activities since the 18th century, beginning with grist mills and saw mills.
