Old Wood Delaware has announced it will open a second location in the historic Preservation Forge in downtown Lewes.
The company also has a location on Route 9 just east of the Route 5 intersection in Harbeson.
Old Wood Delaware is a full-service reclaimed flooring and furniture manufacturer based in Queen Anne, Md. More than 30 years ago, the owners purchased an old lumber mill from the 1930s and modernized the aging sawmill into a 40,000-square-foot warehouse and production facility geared toward manufacturing specialty wood products.
