That\u2019s noteworthy, considering all the other pilgrim attractions as well as beaches and seafood restaurants.<\/p>\n<p>The Plimoth Gristmill not only pleases as a historic landmark but also as a peaceful oasis from the often busy pace of downtown Plymouth. Situated by the scenic Town Brook, this beautiful reproduction of the water power corn grinding mill originally built in 1636 by the pilgrims utilizes stones, spindle and stone furniture from the early 1800s \u2014 all salvaged from a mill near Philadelphia, Penn. Today, the mill grinds cornmeal on 200-year-old French Buhr millstones.<\/p>\n<p>Tours focus on the history of mills during the 1600s, the corn grinding process and the mechanisms of the water wheel and gears. The best days to visit: When the corn is being milled! Additionally, the exhibit gallery allows visitors to grind corn in a mortar and pestle and then sift corn to create cornmeal. The Plimoth Gristmill also features a shop where you can buy freshly ground, organic cornmeal, as well as books and souvenirs.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s not forget, however, that the Gristmill area is absolutely beautiful with the Town Brook, walking bridges, and grassy areas to enjoy a picnic. It\u2019s also walkable to the downtown area with all its shops, restaurants and waterfront. What a nice way to spend some time in the \u201creal\u201d New England!<\/p>\n<p>The Plimoth Gristmill is located at 6 Spring Lane in Plymouth.
