Pottstown Roller Mill is a historic roller mill located on the Schuylkill River at Pottstown, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The original mill building was built in 1725. It was constructed of fieldstone, two stories tall, and three bays wide and two bays deep. The building was altered in 1849. In 1856, two brick stories were added to the original fieldstone mill. A five-bay, brick addition was subsequently added and doubled the size of the 1856 mill. The property includes the contributing dam and mill race.
It is "the roller mill of Jesse Ives ... that provided shelter for escaping slaves" in the Underground Railroad.
