Illustrated Norfolk Manufacturing Company Cotton Mill in Dedham on corkwood coaster set

Norfolk Manufacturing Company Cotton Mill

Bring a little Dedham home.

Corkwood Coaster Set · Four pieces · 3.75 × 3.75 inches

Keep the coasters where the family gathers for tea, so a small picture is part of the table along with the cups. Dedham's mill buildings and millrace bring the Norfolk Manufacturing Company's working setting into view, with Mother Brook beside the industrial structures.

Mother Brook carried water from the Charles toward the Neponset, serving Dedham's mills. The Norfolk Manufacturing Company stone mill was built in 1835 and enlarged in 1863. Its buildings and millrace preserve the story of an industrial landscape shaped by that earlier diversion, begun in 1639.

The mill connects Dedham with the Charles-to-Neponset diversion, keeping the smaller waterway's industrial role as important as the buildings around it. Use the set when friends come over, with a view under each drink and the local connection there to share.
