lumbermills
Wood processing plants
Lumbermills is the plural of lumbermill—a facility where logs are processed into lumber.
The term is interchangeable with sawmill, though lumbermill emphasizes the finished product rather than the cutting process: Three lumbermills operated along the river in the town's heyday.
