Colvin
Run Mill is an operational 19th-century gristmill. Nestled between
Tysons Corner and Reston, this Fairfax County landmark is listed
on the National Register of Historic Places. It stands on land
that was once part of a major transportation artery from the rich
farming valley of the Shenandoah to the maritime port of Alexandria,
Virginia.
The
mill still produces cornmeal and whole wheat flour as it did 175
years ago. The site also includes a 19th-century Millers' House,
a 20th-century general store and a dairy barn. The restored landmark
offers daily tours, educational programs, special events and outdoor
concerts.
