    There are many foundations across the street from the main ruins. There are also some clearings back there which may be what you're looking for. There's also the ruins of what appears to be a second mill back there. Someone else may know more. I was back there last weekend and got covered with...

    Sppedwell/Hampton Furnace

    Gut, I took some time to try and pinpoint the the location but can not accurately locate it remotely based on the topo map. For one, I don't see a bridge crossing the stream in the approximate area. I thought I might possibly locate it on an aerial, but the aerial and topo don't match up. There...

    Sppedwell/Hampton Furnace

    They are hard to notice. They exist along the west side of Glossy Spung (not the narrow western road that you talked of), south of the first intersection that exists north of the ruins at Hampton. So, in other words, go north from the "T" intersection where the obvious ruins of Hampton lie, to...

    Picture from the Other Friendship Village

    Thanks for the help with the picture. I will use the instructions for later photos. In regards to the picture, it is from the Friendship near Camp Inawedien not near Speedwell. It's on private property.

    Picture from the Other Friendship Village

    Several months ago I gained access to this site from the owner of the property containing at least a portion of the Friendship Village located west of former Sooy Place. The building in the pic was told to me to be the former head engineer's house/station for the mill in this location. It seems...

    Again, these are less noticeable former structures present above (north) of the cranberry storage buildings.

    Newbie Piney wanna Be Questions...HELP

    Yes, I apologize for jumping to poor conclusions. You seem like a person who will enjoy the solitude and peace within the pines. Washington and Mount are also very isolated and somewhat spooky.

    Newbie Piney wanna Be Questions...HELP

    I hope all who venture into the Pines, do it with a lot of respect for the cultural and historical aspects it can provide. I may not speak for others but I don't like the idea of Weird NJ and the like coming to the Pine Barrens in search of a thrill. I look at the area in a historical sort of...

    Sppedwell/Hampton Furnace

    From the Frienship Vilage, I take Carranza Road to Tuckerton Road. I take the first left after the left which enters some sort of military station which has a blue entrance sign. I believe this is Glossy Spung Road. There is a small area on the right which looks like it is used as a stopover for...

    Sppedwell/Hampton Furnace

    Hampton Furnace Yes, that is the one to the south. Looks like a former bog worker's residence. Tell me if you have any info. on it. Have you ever noticed the foundation depressions north of the intersection of Glossy Spung and the road that bisects the ruins at Hampton Furnace? There are...

    Sppedwell/Hampton Furnace

    Part of my last message got cut off. I was trying to write that I found the foundation depressions of former structures north of the crossroads at the cranberry packing houses along Glossy Spung Road. Just wanted to fill in the gap I left in the above message.

    Sppedwell/Hampton Furnace

    Guy, thank you very much for the generous information. I was not sure where the photo in Beck's book was taken. I will hopefully be able to identify this spot on the Skitt. Spung Road. They are only depressions (one large which is next to an elbow in the stream) but pieces of masonry materials...
