MoreThe Edenton Cotton Mill Collection is comprised of several dozen sheets of blueprints and two sets of specifications that document the selected phases of the planning and construction of the Edenton Cotton Mill in Edenton, North Carolina. There are also a few blueprints of mill village houses designed by the Aladdin Company. These materials were originally part of the North Carolina Buildings Collection (MC 00225). The Edenton cotton mill and mill village represent a rare example of industrial construction in North Carolina's coastal plain. Designed by nationally known mill engineers, C.R. Makepeace and Company of Rhode Island, the mill structure itself features popular Italianate elements, while the mass of the building expresses the functional requirements of a cotton mill. The architecture of the mill village reflects national trends in the Colonial revival style of the supervisors' and engineers' houses, and in the "operatives'" prefabricated houses from the Aladdin Company of Bay City, Michigan. Other operatives' houses reflect vernacular practices common to North Carolina's rural and urban landscape.
