The Collins Threshing Machine Factory was commenced in 1877 at the present location, having been removed from West Lebanon. The product was four-horse and tumbling shaft threshing machines, sleds, harrows, &c., and met with a sale directly from the factory. The works were situated on Blacklegs near the centre of the township.
