Peaceable Street. The pond shown is at #33 Peaceable and appears to be much larger than it is today. A 1856 map indicates Iron Ore Mining in this area and after seeing this aerial there is a stronger case for a mining pit here...keep in mind more research is required to confirm.


Peaceable Street 2004. The pond is smaller and full of algae...
CL&P lines and power station on the middle right.

History of Redding is a not a business or an organization..It's one person working to promote the history of his hometown
and surrounding areas. All costs are out-of-pocket so donations and/or sponsorships will allow me to dedicate more time
and effort to research and updates.
