Selah Tuthill built the mill on the Shawangunk Kill, immediately above the confluence with the Wallkill River, in 1788 when he was 18. The settlement that sprung up around it was the Town of Gardiner's commercial hub until the construction of the Wallkill Valley Railroad spurred the development of the hamlet of Gardiner.cite web|title=The Tuthilltown Gristmill|url=http://www.tuthilltown.com/|accessdate=2007-09-18]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. Around that time it began producing kosher flour for use in baking matzoh. In 2003, its present owners began converting it into a restaurant to complement their nearby distillery Tuthilltown Spirits produces whiskey, brandy, vodka and rum from locally-grown produce.
