1 Best Sight in South County, Rhode Island

Kenyon's Grist Mill

On the banks of the Queen's River, this circa 1886 mill still grinds cornmeal for johnnycakes the old-fashioned way, with enormous granite millstones quarried in Westerly. You can arrange group tours lasting up to 90 minutes, or wait until the weekend and request an individual tour. Special tour weekends in the summer and fall are combined with kayaking and a clam cake and chowder festival, respectively. Products may be purchased in the mill shop during business hours.
