The York Flour Mill is a purpose-built flour mill, constructed in 1892 with associated buildings built from 1892 onwards, to mill flour for York and the surrounding districts, and for export. The mill is the only remaining mill building in York, a town whose prosperity was built upon the growing wheat and grain. The mill has significance for its association with York's role in the commercial development of agricultural exports in Western Australia. The brick mill and storage sheds, although now without the former plant and machinery, is a rare example of a turn of the century roller-flour mill.
Located at the end of Broome and Railway Street. Three stories high.
