The Hillsborough Mills are a historic textile manufacturing complex at 37 Wilton Road in western Milford, New Hampshire, near its town line with Wilton. The oldest buildings of the brick mill complex were built in 1866 as a carpet-making operation. This business failed in 1874, but the complex was acquired by other textile interests, and eventual sawy success producing carpet yarns, and blankets for horses and bedding. The mills were closed in 1970, and have since been adapted for other uses.[2]
The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.[1]
