Abstract:		 Sara's Foundry, established by William M Sara in 1860, is a remarkable survival of a 19th century foundry, of unique importance because of the survival of machinery and artefacts inside it. However it is in perilous condition and on the English Heritage (EH) Buildings at Risk Register, where it is a category A site, being 'at risk of rapid decay or collapse with no plan or scheme for restoration agreed'. A diseased tree overhanging the building presented a further serious threat. EH agreed to fund the removal of the tree in order to reduce the risk to the building; the EH Inspector requested that a watching brief be carried out while the tree was being removed, to ensure that there would be no risk or damage to the building in the process.
