Spanning over 40 former farms marked by old stone walls, the Furnace Brook property protects five town wells and riparian habitat along its namesake brook, once known as Puddle Wharf. The remains of 19th century iron furnaces and nail factories lining the banks hint at its past as an early industrial site that now serves as important open space for the community.
