Floyd Cotton Gin

United States historic place

The Floyd Cotton Gin is a historic cotton gin at the junction of Arkansas Highway 31 and Arkansas Highway 305 in Floyd, Arkansas, USA. It is a two-story wood-frame building roughly L-shaped with a single-story section extending its southern end and a two-story section projecting east under a continuation of the sloping gabled roof. This gin was built in the 1930s, when White County was one of the nation's leading producers of cotton. It is one of five gins in the county to survive from that period. In early 2022, the cotton gin was torn down for unknown reasons.[2]
