Wile Carding Mill Museum

Wile Carding Mill Museum, located in Bridgewater, Canada, offers visitors a glimpse into the industrial history of Nova Scotia from 1860 to 1968. The museum showcases the water-powered mill that revolutionized wool carding in the area, providing a unique experience of imagining the clatter as wool was prepared for bedding and spinning.

Operated by the DesBrisay Museum, Wile Carding Mill Museum allows guests to witness the overshot waterwheel still turning in its tranquil setting on Sandy Brook, serving as a reminder of the once vibrant industrial center. Visitors can step outside and envision the line of ox carts waiting as women operators processed loads of sheep fleece, offering a hands-on look at the region's past.
