In 1957, the rubble-stone mill was purchased by the Falls Yarn Mill to expand their operations. Falls Yarn remained in operation until 1984.
In 1995, the rubble-stone mill and the attached building were considered for the site of the Museum of Work & Culture. Floor plans and promotional materials were created, but logistics caused the site to be moved to the neighboring Barnai Worsted Mill.
