It was built about 1810, and is a 2 1/2-story, sandstone building with a gable roof. It measures approximately {{convert|20|by|30|ft}}. The mill closed in the 1820s, and converted to a dwelling.[2] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1] The mill is named after William Searight, who built the mill on a farm previously owned by George Washington.[3] Searight is credited for realizing that small fulling mills could not compete with city based factories served by railroads, and left the fulling business before his mills became unprofitable.[4] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{National Register of Historic Places in Pennsylvania}}{{FayetteCountyPA-NRHP-stub}}2. ^{{cite web| url = https://www.dot7.state.pa.us/ce/SelectWelcome.asp| title = National Historic Landmarks & National Register of Historic Places in Pennsylvania| publisher = CRGIS: Cultural Resources Geographic Information System| format = Searchable database}} Note: This includes {{cite web| url = {{NRHP-PA|H000872_01H.pdf}}| title = National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form: Searight's Fulling Mill| accessdate = 2012-01-28| author = Helen L.
