Hanford Mills Museum, also known as Kelso Mill, is a historic grist mill and sawmill and a national historic district in East Meredith, Delaware County, New York. The district spans about 50 acres and includes nine contributing buildings and three contributing structures, such as a mill race from Kortright Creek to a dammed Mill Pond powering the waterwheel, a spillway, part of a 1900s New York Central Railroad track, two railroad bridges over Kortright Creek, and various other buildings. The main mill building dates to the 1820s with additions in the 1870s–1890s. The four-story wood-frame mill is roughly 150 feet long and 120 feet high. There is also a one-story depot with a grain elevator and storage facilities. The site is now operated as a museum and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
