Helen Furnace

Clarion County · dedicated 1950 · Miola Rd. (SR 1005 / old PA 966) at White Oak Dr. (SR 1004), between Clarion and Scotch Hill

Just west of this point can be seen the well-preserved interior of cold blast furnace built in 1845. It was one of numerous iron furnaces operated in Clarion County from about 1829-1867. The County, then, was often referred to as "The Iron County."
