- Description:
- The McCosh Grist Mill is a historic grist mill near Rock Mills in Randolph County, Alabama. Built in the early 1870s, it is the oldest extant stone grist mill in Alabama. It was built by James Eichelburger McCosh. He also owned 500 acres of farmland nearby, and later added a cotton gin to the site. The mill operated until 1958, and was purchased in 1970 by the United States Army Corps of Engineers as part of the West Point Lake reservoir project.
