Golda's Mill, Historic watermill near Stilwell, Oklahoma
This red wooden mill structure stands next to Bitting Springs, featuring a 20-foot diameter steel wheel that replaced the original wooden one in 1908.
Dr. Nicholas Bitting established the mill in 1882 on a site where an earlier gristmill operated shortly after the Civil War.
The mill served as a central gathering point for local farmers, with owners providing free meal to Cherokee families during times of need.
The mill operated continuously until 1945, processing grain into meal using the water power from the adjacent springs through an advanced raceway system.
The mill incorporated both wooden and metal technologies, demonstrating the evolution of milling practices from the 1880s through the early 1900s.
