История
Индейцы эно первыми использовали эту местность для рыбалки, охоты и выращивания сельскохозяйственных культур. Наконечники стрел, оставленные племенем, можно найти и сегодня. Когда белые поселенцы прибыли в этот район, они обнаружили источники пресной воды, что побудило их инвестировать в строительство мельниц по всей округе. Первая мельница, построенная в Эно, получила название мельница Синотта и начала работу в 1752 году под руководством Майкла Синотта, почти легендарного пионера, который испытывал личные трудности и часто представал перед судом. Вскоре после смерти Майкла Синотта в 1780 году территорию приобрели Уильям Тетфорд и Чарльз Аберкромби, построившие West Point Mill. Параллельно со строительством мельниц здесь формировалось поселение, получившее название Вест-Пойнт. Поселение процветало некоторое время, но в конечном итоге все его жители либо умерли, либо переехали. West Point Mill служила своим владельцам в течение 160 лет, пока в 1942 году её не закрыл Джейкоб Эллер, десантник, вернувшийся с войны – последняя мельница на реке Ино, прекратившая свою работу. В 1985 году она была включена в Национальный реестр исторических мест.
