Norwich Millpond and Sawmill – McKean County November 7, 1917

Clarke made a group of images of the Norwich Millpond & Sawmill for the Goodyear Lumber Company. This view from that series. The Norwich operation sawed its first log in 1912 and cut its last lumber on August 20, 1921. Operations consisted of long hours six days per week, only pausing on Sundays. This was Goodyear’s last large sawmill in PA. Today the site has been reclaimed by the forest and is part of State Game Lands #30.
