The Forge at Metedeconk

[Ben Ruset]

Gene Donatiello, the historian for Brick Township, has been gracious to provide me with an article on Butchers Forge, which was an important iron forge/furnace in Brick Township, near where the present Pilot House restaurant and former Food Town building are located.
