Cabot Mill

The Cabot Mill on the Androsogin River in Brunswick Maine. This mill was a leading force in the Brunswick social and economic  well being from its conception in 1857 until the end of World War II.
Most of the mill was lost during a fire in 1907.

The focus of the mill was its cotton textiles. Now it currently is part of the Sea Dogs brewing company and restaurant.




 This is what the other side of the mill used to look like before the fire took away most of the mill. That was later rebuilt using brick instead of wood.

    Your photo shows the Bowdoin Mill on the Topsham side of the Androscoggin River, which was built to manufacture paper and remained a paper mill until it closed in the 1980s. The Cabot Mill was across the river in Brunswick, and now houses offices, art studios, restaurants, an antique shop, and a flea market.
