Notes
  • Significance: In the face of opposition by the Guggenheim "Lead Trust," the Bunker Hill Company's president, Frederick Bradley planned and executed the building of a lead smelter, with the assistance of his local manager, Stanly Easton. This plant's output of commercially pure lead made it a significant contributor of this widely used material during nearly sixty-five years of operation.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: N454
  • Survey number: HAER ID-29
