Worrell Mill Pond

Also known as: Watson's Mill
A pond in Northampton County
NE Northampton County on Kirbys Creek. Prior to about 1916, when M. E. Worrell purchased the mill, it was known as Watson's Mill. For a time, a generator there produced electricity for the town of Murfreesboro, 3 mi. s. A marl cliff near the millrace has yielded evidence of at least ten species of marine life.
