Description

Between 1994 and 1999 the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England (now part of English Heritage), surveyed a sample of the remains of sites related to the iron industry in the district of Furness and southern Lakeland. The project involved earthwork survey and landscape analysis, building survey and both ground and aerial photography of sites related to the extractive process, transport, industrial processes and social infrastructure. The survey resulted in the publication 'Furness Iron: the physical remains of the iron industry and related woodland industries of Furness and southern Lakeland', (EH 2000).

Photographs include copies of Frank Woodhall's photography of various sites in 1938 Contents : 7 Plans, 2 notebooks, correspondence, project design, 50 prints, miscellaneous
