Just Another Historic Iron Site in PA

The Lockridge Iron Works remains is something 

my husband and I just discovered. 

 

It's just about an hour from where we live - 

our intended destination was the nearby Alburtis Tavern. 

But we arrived early and decided to investigate the area. 

There is a museum in side the building, 

but that was closed when we arrived. 

I love roaming through the ruins...

and he loves reading the history. 

That's what makes these little adventures work for us.

Huff's Union Church, Alburtis, PA

The church has a long history in this area

but this building replaced a previous structure in 1881.

Alburtis is a neat area. 

It is a small suburb of Allentown.  

If you find your way here 

check out the church, 

dine at Alburtis Tavern

then visit Lock Ridge Furnace Remains.

The tavern is a great place 

for railroad memorabilia.
