The Oxford Industrial Historic District is a 1200acres historic district primarily located in Oxford Township in Warren County, New Jersey. It also extends into Mansfield Township and Washington Township.[1] The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 27, 1992, for its significance in community development, industry, and transportation from 1741 to 1930. It has 385 contributing buildings, including the individually listed Oxford Furnace and Shippen Manor, three contributing structures, and six contributing sites.[2]
Oxford Furnace was started in 1741 by Joseph Shippen Jr. and Jonathan Robeson. The ironmaster's house, Shippen Manor, was built by Shippen and his brother William Shippen Sr. and features Georgian architecture. The Oxford Methodist Church was built in 1813 with Colonial Revival architecture.[2]
