    A side view of the waterfall. Water typically comes over the top of water wheels and falls on the far side.

    Water landing at the waterfall’s base, note the ripples as water goes over the falls.

    This building is somebody’s home designed to look like a mill house. We’ll let it slide that the water wheel is out of scale.

    Very nice!

    Because the architect made the building fit the surroundings and the development’s theme; I thought Jeliff Mill was an old mill.

    For more information, read this article about the Jeliff Mill Historic District. The old building was removed to make way for the housing development.

    A fun picture with yours truly.
