The iron and furnace industry of the late 19th century defines this landscape where the Jackson River and Cowpasture River meet. The presence of Long Dale Furnace, Callie Furnace, and Princess Furnace suggests a period of intense industrial activity fueled by local resources. Transport and trade are anchored by the Chesapeake and Ohio RR, which follows the river valleys, connecting workers at the Long Dale Mines and Victoria Mines to regional markets.
