1. Stark's Cabin Marker
The Stark's cabin is a single pen, one and one half story log cabin, approximately 18 ft. x 18 ft. It has dove tail notching and a cut stone chimney. The date of construction is unknown but believed to be during the first phase of Cumberland Furnace.
Without the front porch and shed frame addition, the cabin is an example of the many cabins that once were a part of Cumberland Furnace when it was an iron plantation.
