This photograph shows the whole complex at Charles Mill, built along Camp Spring Run.

In 1890 there were two warehouses listed on canal property at Four Locks. A store, warehouse and hay shed were operated by Snyder and Fennser, and a warehouse near Charles’ Mill on the canal berm was rented to the operator of the mill (Unrau).
