A good friend of ours discovered this treasure while excavating a property in Spencer , MA. Its original use was as a Millstone likely used in a local mill. After retiring from its day job it rest on top of an artisan well only to be buried by decades of dirt and leaves.
It’s not often you find a millstone or a wellstone. It’s very rare when you find them both in the same stone.
These two posts were donated to the Town of Warren and installed at the South Warren Cemetery. They are roughly 8″ square and 80″ long. The gate was produced by a local black smith.

We were fortunate to salvage these oversized granite slabs. They sat along front a barn built in 1794. Most of these stones are 3’x5′ or bigger. We have a few left in stock.

Here’s another nice angle of that split.
This stone required being split to specific measurements. The left side of the stone is 2″ thick while the right is 4″. This required more patience and extra attention to detail.
The granite cap is being installed at the Dickinson house in Amherst, Ma.
We look forward to sharing more historical restoration projects with you in the future.
