Whites Factory
I have done a couple of posts of the old abandoned Whites Factory in Acushnet MA a few times, but revisiting there again for this post, for a couple of reasons, one I think its a cool site, and two I have been so busy out taking photos I haven't done as mush editing of photos as I want to so had to look through my edited images
I really must make some time for photo editing

White’s Factory is named for William White Sr., who first built a water-powered cotton mill on this site in 1799. The mill, which one of the first cotton-spinning mills in the nation, provided most of the jobs in Acushnet outside of farming. It remained in operation until 1854, when it was converted to a saw mill that ran into the 20th century.
After it was abandoned, the former mill became covered in plant growth until volunteers restored the ruins in 2008. Today, the walls and water wheel arches of White’s Factory are a popular draw for photographers, who love to use these ancient-looking stones as a backdrop for portraits or simply contrast them against the dramatic open sky beyond. If you’re exploring the ruins, take care around its old stone walls; they are unsupported and could collapse if climbed or pushed on.
I do love B&W edits of this place but for this post I am doing a mix of mono and color

I think its such a cool landmark here, I kind of hope they do not let it get any more abandoned and it stays in place for people to visit
