Abandoned places in NJ. Pine Barrens

There are hundreds pins marking historical or abandoned places on my map. Part of them is already explored or even filmed, but most has not yet been discovered.

For today’s journey I chose few locations in Pine Barrens what I have never explored before. Join me to visit these secluded places. As usual, before the trip I had never known what might be found and what awaited me. Of course, I had to exclude some posted locations. Regrettably, but the most of attractive and mysterious places in NJ, as a rule, are surrounded by “No trespassing” signs.

First location is Estellville glassworks ruins. Shameful, but haven't never been here before. The site is an early 19th century glass factory that was built between 1825-1826 and was in operation from 1826-1877. The glassworks factory flourished during the mid-1800's and produced both hollow ware (like bottles) and window glass.

Second pin on the map. Didn’t manage to recognize what was there. Well, let’s see in person.

About third abandoned place for today I learned from a subscriber. Some old rusting cars on rails. Not sure if they have any historical significance, but I was nearby and decided to take a look.

Last location was Hermann Ghost Town. The second-largest glass factory in the Pine Barrens was built in 1873 to produce shaded hollow ware and Christmas decorations. Factory workers lived in the small town of 70 homes, but now it’s tricky enough to find last disappearing traces of it. Only several foundations and glass furnace remains may be found in the woods along Mullica River.
