Industry
Unlike the town's first three mills, which were built with granite blocks quarried from Durham Point, No. 4 Mill was constructed from local trap rock. By 1869, when the building was completed, Newmarket's mills were running 39,000 spindles and 906 looms, producing 160,000 yards of cotton cloth each week, and employing about 500 people.
