Clove Furnace Ruin, Industrial blast furnace museum in Arden, United States.
The Clove Furnace stands 54 feet tall with a 37-foot square base, featuring a stone structure built for iron ore smelting operations.
Built in 1854 by Robert and Peter Parrott, the furnace supplied iron to the West Point Foundry for manufacturing weapons during the Civil War.
The Orange County Historical Society maintains exhibits documenting the regional mining operations and industrial development of the nineteenth century.
Visitors can access the museum site directly from Arden Station Road, with the prominent furnace structure visible from the New York State Thruway.
The furnace achieved a record-setting continuous blast from 1871 to 1881, producing over 101,245 gross tons of pig iron during this period.
