SN7809 : Ynyscedwyn iron works

near to Gurnos, Powys, Great Britain

Ynyscedwyn iron works

With the many coal mines in the surrounding area, it was only natural for the heavy industry of metal working to go hand in hand. Here we see the remains of the victorian Ynyscedwyn iron works, which made use of the revolutionary hot blast process.

The arches and chimney stack are all that remain today of a large factory that sprawled across this area.
