Mill Creek (formerly known as Felt's Brook) is a watercourse in Falmouth Foreside, Maine, United States.[1] It is crossed, near its mouth at inner Casco Bay, by State Route 88 — known as Foreside Road (formerly Atlantic Highway) in that section. A plaster mill formerly stood directly south of this crossing, at the end of today's Old Mill Road, for 140 years.[2] [3]
The brook was originally named for English immigrant George Felt, who was a large landowner in the area in the 17th century.[4] [5]
Mill Creek Preserve is nearby.[6]
