The Endor Iron Furnace was a pig iron furnace that operated from the early 1860s until 1874. It was built to take advantage of the iron deposits along the Deep River. The furnace is located near Cumnock, North Carolina, in Lee County, North Carolina, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
During the civil war, the furnace forged cannon balls and shot for the Confederate Army.
