KNOW A PIECE OF HISTORY IN OLD BRIDGE TOWNSHIP

The clay soil in Old Bridge Township has been used for pottery and bricks even before the arrival of the first European settlers. By 1800’s it was a major industry in the town. Many of the small ponds in the area are actually the remains of pits dug to extract clay. This photo shows digging clay at the Harry C. Perrine Clay Bank, formerly the Otto Ernest Clay Bank near Route 9 and Ernston Road. Photo from the Madison-Old Bridge Township Historical Society Photo Collection.
