Old Wade House; Blacksmith Shop
| Ektachrome postcard of the blacksmith shop next to a stream. Text on reverse reads: "The Blacksmith Shop was Sylvanus Wade's first venture in Greenbush. As stagecoach traffic increased he decided to build an inn also. Up the river from the smithy can be seen the remains of an old dam. On the left bank, looking upstream, stood the sawmill, on the right bank, a gristmill." |
