Starting in 1825, a mill and associated factory housing were built in the village of Tariffville in Simsbury. The original carpet factory burned in 1867 and was replaced the following year by the current factory. Built by the Connecticut Screw Company, a business that did not succeed, the Tariffville Mill, at 2 Tunxis Road, served a variety of industries over the years. Today, the structure is a mixed use office building, called the Mill at Tariffville, housing a restaurant several other businesses.
