Lehigh Valley Silk Mills is a historic silk mill complex located at Fountain Hill, Northampton County, Pennsylvania. The complex consisted of two firms: the Lipps & Sutton Silk Mill, constructed between 1886 and 1904, and the Warren Mill constructed in 1895. The buildings are of red brick vernacular construction. The Lipps & Sutton Mill, designed by locally prominent architect A. W. Leh, has distinctive decorative features that include small corbeled corner turrets with pyramidal pinnacles of sheet metal. The Warren Mill is devoid of ornamentation. Lehigh Valley Silk Mills ended in bankruptcy in 1937. The buildings were renovated using a federal historic preservation tax credit, and contain private residences and government offices for the Fountain Hill borough. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.〔 == Gallery == File:Lipps & Sutton Silk Mill 04.JPG|Lipps & Sutton Silk Mill, central part.
