Description

The Edwin C. Jellett Series of Scrapbooks, Volume 9 -The Wissahickon Page 49 contains a photograph with a typed caption that reads: "Comly's Mill, Near Valley Green, Whitemarsh Township". The photograph shows a large (approximately five stories) stone "barn-like" building with a lower (two story) building attached and protruding from the rear of the larger building. The "extension" building has an open door frame at the second story level. The top of the main building appears open to the elements and appears to show only wooden framing. Numerous window openings are visible - some appear to be open, others appear to be shuttered. Grass and open fields surround the buildings.
