High Falls

HIGH FALLS is a Moore County Community located on the north banks of the Deep River.  The community is named after a nearby 15-foot waterfall along the Deep River.  The community was also known as Great Falls or Big Falls - but High Falls would become the community's name.

High Falls was settled when William England began a grist mill around 1790. A few decades later, a nearby community named Prosperity formed about a mile to the east.  However, all that remains of Prosperity is a nearby church.
