Default Archaeology Dig at Ashburys Aug-Sept 2012 - 19-09-2012, 00:24

Having Spent the last 6 weeks on an Archaeology Dig just North of Ashburys Railway Station I thought people might like some of the Brickage there. We were on the site of the Iron processing facilities which were demolished around 1920 when Ashburys Railway Carriage & Iron Company closed down

Puddling Furnace

Cupola Furnace Base



Open Hearth Furnace


Brick Flue System
