Other buildings include a blacksmith shop, a quarry office, a general store, a log cabin and a one-room schoolhouse. Recalling the area's former limestone quarrying industry that converted limestone from the surrounding cliffs into fertilizer are a stone crusher/sorter, old lime kilns and machinery sheds.
