Iron County Monuments and Markers from Cedar City Library

Grinding stone, metal plaque, and decorative rock work set on a concrete base. Sons of the Utah Pioneers. Inscription: "On this site, in 1876, the Cedar Co-operative Mercantile and Manufacturing Institution constructed the Cedar Co-op Mill. It was a large, three-story wooden building. The original two sets of four foot grinding stones were turned by water which was brought in a ditch from Coal Creek to the South and East. This mill ground the flour, cereal and livestock feed for much of Iron County. In 1900 the grinding stones were replaced by a set of rollers. The Mill was changed to a plaster mill in 1934 and operated until 1945. In 1952 the building was torn down and the property sold to Cedar City. For many years this mill was a hub of activity in this valley. Site No. 8. Cedar City Chapter Sons of Utah Pioneers. Dedicated November 10, 1984."
