I highly recommend that you click on the above link, which will help orient you with the City of Westminster, the county seat of Carroll County and home of the Sherwood smokestack as seen below.
Welcome to Westminster, a city known not just as the training home of the Ravens, but also as the home of the hub to the first county-wide rural free delivery service in the country, eliminating the need to come to the post office for your mail. you can read more about that here.
About this smokestack, it belonged to the Sherwood distillery, makers of Sherwood Rye, one of the many formerly well known Maryland’s ryes. The original location of sherwood was in what is now known as Hunt Valley in Baltimore Co. stay tuned for more Rye history at a later date from there.
