Forge No. 2, (most likely a lime kiln), at Splitrock Furnace in Rockaway, #NewJersey. The original forge was built by Ebenezer Ferrand in the 1790s. Forge No. 1 (still standing) was built in 1862 and was the last charcoal-fired blast furnace built in New Jersey. It produced objects related to the Civil War. Various stone walls and other foundations exist at the site from a crushing mill and other outbuildings. The site operated until the 1870s. #nj #njhistory #SpreadTheHistory #historygirl #rockaway #rockawaynj #architecture #archi_ologie #thisisnj #jerseycollective #njspots #explorenj #igersnj #ushistory #americanhistory #ipulledoverforthis #travelblog #travelblogger #blog #blogger #journeythroughjersey #splitrockreservoir #furnace #CivilWar #industrialhistory #industry (at Splitrock Reservoir)
