dc.descriptionIn 1683, Henry Greenland built the first tavern here for travelers between New York City and Philadelphia. The current Kingston Mill, also known as the Kingston Gristmill, was built in 1888, the third one at this site. In 1755, Jacob Skilman built a gristmill and sawmill here on the Millstone River. The mill was burned in 1776 by the British Army during the American Revolutionary War. The district also includes the Greenland�Brinson�Gulick farm, four nearby houses, and the Kingston Bridge, an 18th-century stone arch bridge over the river. It was one of the first settlements in Princeton, preceded only by the Quaker community along the Stony Brook
