Helfrich's Springs Grist Mill is a historic grist mill located at Whitehall Township, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania along Jordan Creek. It was built in 1807, and is a three-story, fieldstone mill and measures approximately 30 feet wide and 58 feet deep. It has a slate roof. The Township of Whitehall acquired the property by eminent domain in 1963.[2] The building is owned and operated by the Whitehall Historical Preservation Society, who began restoring it in 1984.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[1] A boundary increase in 1999 added the Peter Grim House with NRHP reference number 99001288.
