This old iron furnace operated between 1793 and the 1840s producing pig iron and other products from locally sourced bog iron (responsible for the color of the water you see here in the pine barrens!) There was once a little town surrounding the furnace, but the town was abandoned and the ruins of the furnace are now buried under sand within a fence perimeter.
