The Burwell-Morgan Mill, established in 1785, is the oldest operable merchant mill in the Shenandoah Valley. The mill operated 24/7, processing more than 60,000 bushels of wheat per year. The community of Millwood grew around this commercial center as related businesses were established, and by way of the seaports at Alexandria and Baltimore, mill products were shipped abroad.
