Description: Alfred Reagan's tub mill in the Roaring Fork Historic District, GSMNP, in East Tennessee. The flume in the foreground diverted water from Roaring Fork, which splashed over and turned the mill's tub-wheel turbine (under the millhouse, out of picture). The turbine turned a grindstone in the millhouse which broke down corn and wheat into corn meal and flour. The mill, constructed around 1900, is still operational.
