VALLEY, PA


Here are the ruins of the Valley coke works. Some of these ovens may have been built as early as 1869. The original operator of Valley was Wilson, Boyle and Playford Co., and H.C. Frick Coke Co. tool over in 1877. The coal and coke works at Valley ceased operations in 1918.


A few remaining company built houses for the workers of the Valley coke works on the edge of Everson. Most of the patch and the company store are gone now.
