Walter's Falls... originally home to an old lumber and wool mill that functioned until the early 1980's.This is the dam that's precedes the falls. It's a lovely spot...
The water caused the turbines to rotate and power to be generated.
Close up view of the dam with it's stone wall
covered in moss.
A view of the Falls from the deck of the
restaurant.
