The Old Mill in T.R. Pugh Memorial Park, North Little Rock, is a replica of a 1800s gristmill, dedicated in 1933 as a tribute to Arkansas pioneers. Though never operational, it features authentic 1828 mill components and detailed faux bois artistry by Dionicio Rodriguez. Famous for appearing in Gone With the Wind, it's a picturesque spot perfect for photography, especially during early mornings or golden hour before sunset. Plan for about an hour to explore this serene, storybook setting where history and fantasy beautifully intertwine.
