Bourne Mill is a historic textile mill in Tiverton, Rhode Island.

The various buildings in the cotton mill complex were completed from 1881 to 1951 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006. The Bourne corporation had a unique profit sharing arrangement based upon Jonathan Bourne's experience in the whaling industry. The company treasurer, George A. Chace, designed the original mill building.

Located just over the border from Fall River, Massachusetts it is generally grouped and referenced with the mills of that city.

The site is currently slated for conversion into residences by the Armory Revival Company of Providence, Rhode Island using historic tax credits.
