Building 2. The only C20 building on site. Wooden shed, which a photo suggests was open fronted, housing sawmill machinery powered by a Pelton Wheel fed by a pipe from the millpond. The sawmill superseded corn milling at the site. Although the building does not survive, much of the machinery is extant.
