Pond Bay, Warbleton Priory Furnace (2)
Pond Bay, Warbleton Priory Furnace (2)
A view from the top of the eastern side of the pond bay across Christian's River to the remaining portion. There are records of a waterway further west that may have allowed the river to bypass the site, however, the bay could also have had a spillway allowing water egress to power a possible wheel pit at this point. Added to this is the possibility of two different working areas of furnace. Since the site's closure the river has been allowed to breach the bay completely which gives a good indication of the actual height of the earthworks.
