Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A survey of the eighteenth-century quay and nineteenth-century copper mine and arsenic works at Gawton was carried out in 1988. Although ruined, many structures remain from each of the four main uses made of the site -- the extensive quay, mining, arsenic manufacture and lime burning -- and these are described and discussed. A study of the available documentary material is integrated with the physical evidence, and the history and development of the site is discussed. The process of arsenic manufacture is briefly described with reference to the surviving buildings. The Appendix (96) presents an 1858 newspaper extract relating to the sale of Gawton Quay. | ||||
