A small 20'X 30' rubblestone building os 2.5 stories. Probably built in the early 1850's around the gold rush era. Not certain if it was a mill that made shingles as the name of the town suggests, or was a flour mill that took its name from the town. Shingle Springs suggests that shingles were made there. This needs more researching.
