"Fitchburg furnace, a monument to Estill County's great iron producing
era stands on a mountainside in the northeastern portion of Estill
County. It is approximately 16 miles from Irvine and can be reached
by taking highway 52 from Irvine to Ravenna, continuing on #62 from
Ravenna up and down a large mountain on the way toward Bettyville. At
the foot of the mountain, 2 rural highways come together immediately
off highway 52. One highway 213 leads to Cobhill, the other highway
975 makes a sharp turn to the left leading to Fitchburg. The Aldersgate
Youth Camp owned and operated by the Kentucky Conference of the Methodist
Church is located near the furnace. Fitchburg furnace was completed in
1858. Built at the peak of the iron industry in Estill County, it was
the last furnace to be built in the county.
