Notes
  • Significance: As originally built ca. 1880, this "double-pen" textile mill workers' house provided three rooms for each dwelling. The interior walls and ceilings were finished with horizontally laid double-beaded sheathing. Wood-fueled kitchen stoves vented through brick flues in the roof. The West Point Manufacturing Co. added the bathroom wing ca. 1925 to replace original privies at the back of the lot. The closets flanking the living room fireplaces are also additions. This building is one of over 260 structures in the Langdale Mill village. The Chattahoochee Manufcaturing Co. built the mill in 1866 as the Chattahoochee Mill, renaming it ca. 1880 to honor William and Thomas Lang, English employees who contributed to the mill's technological advances and economic success. The West Point Manufacturing Co. succeeded the original owners in the 1880s as part of a consolidation of mill companies in the region.
