Historical/Interpretive Information/Exhibits
These rocks mark the site of a building of the now-vanished town of Matildaville. Founded in 1790, the town was planned as an industrial community which would profit from its location on the canal. It once boasted a forge, gristmill, store, storage buildings, some homes and an inn, but it could not survive the closing of the canal in 1830.
