The Barcroft Mill





The mill, a symbol of Barcroft Neighborhood, was built by Dr. John Wolverton Barcroft after the Civil War on the foundations of the former Arlington Mill. Located on Columbia Pike at Four Mile Run, the Barcroft Mill burned in 1926, set afire by hot cinders from a steam locomotive passing up Four Mile Run on the W&OD Railroad. The mill site is now occupied by two automotive repair shops at 4961 and 4969 10th Street South.
