After visiting the Riverfront Discovery Area, we headed for the James Fort. The fort was a recreation of the 1610-14 fort, which home to Jamestown's earliest colonists. At first, only men lived in the fort.

Would you want to get you water from this well? (Note: This water may smell bad and make you sick...and may even lead to death)
Colonial blacksmith: The blacksmith was more of a repairman who was permitted by England to make components for repairs, but was not permitted to make complete items.
