Stull is a census-designated place located in Noxen Township, in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. It appears on the Noxen U.S. Geological Survey Map.[2] It has an estimated elevation of 591 feet (180 m) above sea level. It was originally built to house workers for the sawmill located there.[3] Stull once had a post office, school, store and church and once had as many as 500 residents.[4] The mill burned down in 1902, was rebuilt, but then was again closed for a last time in 1906.[5] The local school closed in 1912. After the closing of the sawmill Stull shifted from lumber to agricultural production and during World War I the remains of the sawmill were scrapped for the war effort. Today there are a few houses and residents remaining.[6]
