The Alpine Mill

Known as Alpine Mill, Providence Mill, Kelly's Alpine Mill or Broadheads Mill.

Located off the main Snowy Highway, a few hundred metres, south of Alpine Creek (well signposted on the road). Walk into the forest about 200 m. On the Tantangara Map at GR 432218. Gatis Gregors listed it at 431217 but it is probably that there were multiple buildings hereabouts. A second mill was at 434235 that was referred to as Broadheads Alpine Mill.

History

Mr E.H. Quodling held the lease or nearby leases in 1907.

This area was used for gold mining and dredging before the development of the timber mill on the south side of the creek.

There was also a soldier settlement farm after WW1 just to the south.
