This was a restaurant, located near Clark’s Mill across the highway from the millpond. The structure may be an older one, but someone noted that as late as the 1990s, the restaurant was open. I’ll update if I learn more.

It’s been a long time.Is the dam and creek still behind it?
While Clarks Mill is a “thing of the past”, the thing i rember most is Ms Dallis McKenzies famous “hush puppies”. The A/C might’ve not worked but the food was “on point”..
Chris Welch, do you remember the name of the restaurant?
I have the Hush Puppy Recipe from there! We lived right up the road from there and it was a great restaurant!
Has anyone looked in Washington County at what was known as Old Francis Place. The main house and slave quarters were there last time I looked, which has been a while.
The main house has been torn down but a number of the smaller buildings are still there
I’ll bet it was the place to go for a Friday night fish fry. ❤
Looks like it was a nice place. thanks for posting..
