| The Codorus Furnace, located along the
Codorus Creek near the Susquehanna River, once supplied
ammunition to the colonists fighting for independence during the
American Revolution. Built in 1765, this structure is listed on
the National Register of Historic Places. Of note, the furnace
was once owned by James Smith, a signer of the Declaration of
Independence who is now buried at First Presbyterian
Church.
