The Wile Carding Mill is a defunct carding mill in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia that was owned and operated by the Wile family from 1860 to 1968. The Wiles ran the mill but employed a number of workers, usually unmarried women, to actually operate the machinery. The mill was powered by a 7 horsepower (5 kW) overshot waterwheel using the water of Shady Brook. The Mill is now a museum.Template:Museum-stub
