Title:

Digital archive:  Photographs of Llancillo forge site

Date:

c1970s, 2017

 

Photographs of the site of the former Llancillo forge, which was operational from the 17th to 19th centuries. The forge itself has been demolished and a modern barn now stands on the site. The first photograph (taken c1970s) shows the ruin of a building adjacent to the forge site and thought to be contemporary with it, though the purpose is unknown (possibly accommodation for workers?). The other photographs show the same building in a more advanced state of decay in 2017, and close to it a modern barn built on the site of the former forge.


See  ‘
The Iron Forge at Llancillo: Its Owners and Operators’ by Philip Vaughan for a reconstructed history of the forge.
