The Stover-Myers Mill, a watermill on the Tohickon Creek in Bedminster Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania,is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
----
The mill was built around 1800 and operated continuously until 1955. Built by Jacob Stover,it used a millstone to grind flour and feed for livestock using power from a waterwheel. The mill was also equipped with an up-and-down saw and operated as a lumber mill. Christian Myers augmented the mill in 1885. with a steam engine. Milling of flour ceased in 1920, primarily due to competition from Mid-Western states, and the mill closed in 1955.
---
The property was purchased by Bucks County in 1967 and the mill currently resides in a 26-acre park and is open to the public.
----
On the lawn can be seen rusting old turbines that were once used to run the mill. Fundraising is underway to restore Stover-Myers Mill.
