Almost underneath the Trout Creek Bridge and next to the old Slatington News Building (no longer there), the old Gloria Sewing Mill has been repurposed. The mill was one time owned by the Muschlitz family.
This was known as Kern's dam, which supplied the water feed for Trucker's sawmill and also the gristmill. The trestle in the background carried the branch of the Lehigh Valley R.R. up to the slate quarries.
