The Davis Mill is a historic stamp mill located off of North Bloomfield Road northeast of Nevada City, California. The mill served the Randolph Mine, a small gold mine run by the Davis family, from 1915 to 1940. It included the standard machinery of an early 20th century stamp mill, which consisted of a stamp battery, a rock crusher, an ore bin, an amalgamation table, concentrators, and a retort room. These parts were enclosed in a multi-story metal structure. The components and layout of the mill are well-preserved, providing an example of how miners processed ore in a stamp mill.^[2]^[3]

The mill was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 1, 2010.^[1]
