}}Searight's Fulling Mill is a historic fulling mill located at Perryopolis, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. 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]
