This is the remains of what was once a major iron industry -- although its hard to believe when you see this area today. Nicely restored by a group of volunteers under expert archaeological guidance, tours for visiting school and other groups whenpre-arranged, and they are open on Saturdays from 10 AM - 2 PM in the summer with knowledgeable guides. Did I mention that it is free?

Strange place but someone has taken the time to put up signage so you get the history and see pictures of how it used to look. It is worth a visit if you are driving through the area. So different from other historical places.

Nice hiking trail with historical information. Parking is limited, and we werent able to find a map of the trail which made it difficult to plan the hike. We ended up hiking for 3 miles up hill and then turned around.

This was really cool to read about the history at the furnace. And then also walk some of the trails. My friend that now lives in canaan took me there on my most recent visit.
