    John Winthrop Jr. Iron Furnace Site image
    Take a few minutes to explore this important historical landmark for the region. It is the foundation of the first iron blast furnace in the North America, and what gives Furnace Brook it's name. Furnace Brook runs from the Blue Hills Reservation all the way through Quincy and into Quincy Bay via Blacks Creek. The brook runs along side the site and there are multiple signs at the site explaining what the furnace looked like when it was fully erected. The site sits down below the road grade so it is easy to miss. It also sits alongside the Hall Cemetery where Solomon Willard (the god father of granite quarrying in Quincy) is layed to rest.

    It was so interesting finding ruins in Acushnet MA. It was originally an old cotton mill that was originally built in 1799! The history is interesting and I applaud the preservation society for its protection instead of our usual American way of life (throw everything away). I really enjoy and appreciate viewing antiquities. See more..
