The Jenney Grist Mill will be open for school vacation from Dec. 27 to Jan. 3. Admission is free. Bring the family and enjoy an ice cream or a corn muffin, cider, coffee or hot chocolate while sitting in the most historic mill in our country.

One of the main reasons the Pilgrims decided to locate in Plymouth is the waterway that is referred to today as Town Brook. Town Brook is a small river that runs through the center of Plymouth for a mile and a half, and empties into the harbor next to Plymouth Rock.
