THE EDINBURGH DAM

 If you trave the State Road 252 through Edinburgh, you've probably seen the dam on Blue River.  The Thompson Mill Dam faild in 2023.  Demolition has begun this past week.  The dam was built to furnish water for the Thompson Mill water wheel.  The dam was later given to the town of Edinburgh and it supplied some electricity to the town.  "Low Head" dams around the state and country are being removed due to safety issues.
