Loranger Gristmill in Greenfield Village, September 2007
- Gristmill near the Wayside Inn, Sudbury, Massachusetts, circa 1928 - Henry Ford purchased the Wayside Inn, the setting for the poems in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's <EM>Tales of a Wayside Inn</EM>, in 1923. Over six years, Ford spent more than $2 million restoring the inn and several adjacent buildings, including this gristmill. In retrospect, the project was something of a dry run for Ford's Greenfield Village complex a few years later.
