Grimes Brothers Mill, also known as Lexington Roller Mill and Excelsior Mill, is a historic flour mill located at Lexington, Davidson County, North Carolina. It was built about 1885, and is a four-story brick building with a basement. It measures approximately 34 feet by 40 feet and has a shallow-pitched shed roof. The mill remained in operation until about 1960, and the building was converted to bank use in the early 1960s.[2]
