I first came across this amazing hidden gem, in a quiet corner of Southwest Cumbria, completely by chance as I cycled past & have always wondered why it isn't better known.
I decided to acknowledge its place in local industrial heritage, by placing this cache in honour of Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee in 2022.
Tucked away, just off the roadside as you approach Corney Fell, this almost intact iron furnace complex is unknown even by many locals. The buildings are in excellent condition & an information board gives details of the history.
