One of the buildings, originally the old garage, was converted into an exhibit talking about the ironworks of the area and the old iron works building across the street. Sadly there is nothing there any more after some sort of misfortune, but there were lots of interesting old iron works bits and tools that it housed to give you an idea of what it was like back in the hayday. Not to mention I got to see the :home" of the electric telegraph machine, which was pretty awesome as well.

On my day off, I decided to have a nose around Morristown as I had never been there before, and it seemed like there were a bunch of things I would be interested in seeing. I first decided to head off to Historic Speedwell, where I saw a variety of historic buildings from the area that were either located there or moved there from other locations. I love a good historic piece so there was some interesting bits. I sadly just missed the tour and I had a bunch of other things on my list, so I couldn't wait for the next one in an hour. But definitely cool to check out.
