| TEXT | The Brantford New Mills are situated on the south bank of the old canal or "Navigation" and are very convenient of access from both town and country. This property was originally built by Wm. Gibson. The mills were burned, and rebuilt in 1864. After changing hands once or twice, Mr. Thomas Robson became the proprietor, and so has continued until now (1883). The product is six hundred barrels of flour per week. All common varieties of milling are turned out, and much attention paid to custom grinding. The mills derive power from the canal, and are rated at fifty horse-power. There are six hands employed in the establishment. The proprietor has an office upon Colborne Street, and is one of its reliable business men of the day. |
