History & local legend
The Alamo was a local name for roofless cement-works ruins in the Darktown area along the Lehigh River. The account places the ruins south of the Thomas Iron Works and before the Lehigh Street Bridge at Hokendauqua, in Lehigh County.
The Shadowlands collected stories of human-shaped figures, strange noises, and creatures described as trolls or hellhounds in the surrounding woods.
