Wake County Preservation Celebration attendees are invited to preview the not-yet-open-to-the-public Robertson Mill Pond Preserve with Wake County Parks, Recreation & Open Space staff. The future preserve, which includes one of Wake County’s newest historic landmarks, the Robertson Mill Site & Dam, is slated to open to the public sometime in the summer of 2015. The landmark includes the original 1820s mill dam and the foundation of the 1820s gristmill constructed by Dr. Thomas H. Avera’s father William.
