The Big Sandy Milling Company, in Louisa, Kentucky was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. [1]
It has also been known as the Louisa Supply Company, the Louisa Flour & Feed Co., and as Louisa Milling Company. [2] It was located on Pike St. between Lock Ave. and railroad tracks. [1]
It was a three-story post-and-beam structure with a full basement. The posts were 12 inches (0.30 m) to 14 inches (0.36 m) square. [2]
It was deemed significant as it probably was Louisa's oldest extant industrial and commercial establishment and it had "reinforced Louisa's regional status as a trade town, as it would bring area farmers here to trade their grain or to get it processed", and it was "a rare example of post and beam/mortise and tenon construction of such a large building for Eastern Kentucky." [2]
The building appears to have been demolished by 2014.
