The 1760 Appleton Robbins House is a center chimney colonial home on Warner Place in Wethersfield. The house is built into a hill behind it. Recently (October, 2024) I received some information about the blacksmith shop on the property from someone who grew up in the house:
My father and crew of carpenters moved it from my grandmother’s family farm in Watertown, CT. I have newspaper clippings of the “barn raising” when they reconstructed it in Wethersfield in the 1960s. My father, Ted Tolman, actually used the forge and make some iron tools, hinges, etc.
