Stanhope Attractions

Stanhope began in 1798, by 1904 the town consisted of the Morris Canal, the iron ore mines and surrounding forest. This made it a bustling rural community that developed into a substantial iron-manufacturing community in the 19th century.
Waterloo Village
The Andover Iron Works began here in the 1760s. They supplied England even during the first two years of the Revolutionary War. Owing their fortunes to the crown, they had remained Loyalists. In 1778, the American Board of War confiscated the iron works and used it to supply the Continental Army with armaments. After the close of the war, Andover Iron Works was divided and sold off.

Waterloo Village is a living-history museum with 26 historic buildings and guides that provide explanations of the 18th and 19th century traditions. A 1625 recreated Lenape Indian village and 1820s farmsite are included.
