Engineering marvel and great historic significance of the island. The staff at the mill was full of local historic knowledge as well as engineering knowledge on the inner workings of this impressive machine. Kids enjoyed it. Also with the Pass $6 adult, $3 for youth (6-17) and free for children. Gets you into 6 other historic sites on the island for the entire season. Last but not least this mill is operational and they grind up corn and bag it for souvenirs but is it human grade consumable, so one could make corn bread or muffins from it.

5.0Nantucket Founders Burial Ground(11 reviews) - Must see if you want Nantucket history Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
It was like a treasure hunt to find the Founders cemetery. But after a bike ride to Cliff road we found this place. Almost impossible to see markings. But look for a pull out with a pond. Then hike up the gravel road to the gravestones. I had to go because my great grandparents Peter and Mary Folger. Some of the first English to inhabit the island are here. It looks like a restful place but there is a huge structure being built on the edge of the cemetery. Maybe a mansion.See more..
