Bell's Mansion

Bell’s Mansion was built between 1835 and 1840 by
Robert P. Bell, a renowned local businessman.  He was
President of the Morris Canal & Banking Company as well as
the owner of various mills.  The 60-acre iron works track was
purchased by Bell in 1835.  Located in the center of Stanhope,
this vast land area included the site of the present brick house
which Bell constructed for his residence atop the hill overlooking
the Morris Canal. After several other owners, the brick house
was purchased by Herbert K. Salmon in 1905.  He and his
brother, Jerre B Salmon, formed Salmon Brothers Construction
Company, the builders of New Jersey’s first concrete highway.
  After making many contributions as the member of various
local affiliations, Mr. Salmon died at his home in Stanhope
at the age of 99.  The Salmon heirs retained the property
until 1977.  The residence was then sold after being in the
family for 72 years. Now used as a restaurant.
