Introduction
Text-to-speech Audio
Located near Spruce Run Reservoir, The Union Forge Heritage Association’s mission is to preserve and protect the rich history and natural environment of Hunterdon County and the state of New Jersey. For the past 13 successful years, we have accomplished this mission through restoration and adaptive re-use of historic properties and structures associated with the Union Iron Works and the Taylor Wharton Iron and Steel Company in High Bridge New Jersey, as well as, creating the Solitude House Museum, numerous environmental and trail projects. . How we accomplish our mission is as varied and unique as our dedicated group of Trustees, Volunteers, Patrons and supporters. Each member of our family brings a special and unique talent to the group and our mission. Our group includes individuals from architects and carpenters, to tradesman, Master Gardeners and corporate professionals. Many in our family are life long residents of Hunterdon County, while others are transplants from other communities who want to become involved in the preservation and promotion of local history, environment and culture
