In 1939 it became an engineering workshop and was sold to Percy Smith. Continued to operate under Smith family ownership until it was sold to Clarence Minicullo. In 1993, planning approved the restoration of the old mill to 7 residential units. The construction of 6 Residential units and one Commercial Bed and Breakfast was granted.
