Cornwall Iron Furnace was one of many ironworks that were built in Pennsylvania over a sixty-year period, from 1716 to 1776. There were at least 21 blast furnaces, 45 forges, four bloomeries, six steel furnaces, three slitting mills, two plate mills, and one wire mill in operation in Colonial Pennsylvania.
Cornwall was initially settled by Peter Grubb in 1734. [4] Peter was a Chester County stonemason who came to, what was then Lancaster County , in search of high quality stone for quarrying . First building his house and then a store, he discovered magnetite iron ore nearby and decided to test its quality, he found the ore to be exceedingly pure.
