Abstract:		 An archaeological impact assessment was carried out and revealed that the site had a long history of iron working. It was possible that a iron mill was located here dating to the 13th century. Documentary sources refer to James Watt's first commercial steam engine being installed herein 1776. in 1829 Joseph Hall built Bloomfield Ironworks on the site of earlier iron works. This closed in the early 20th century and was replaced by Bloomfield Colliery which was replaced by the 1930s Brymill Steelworks. The site was utilised until recently by Sorus Steelworks who constructed their first steel cold mill and service centre here. [Au(adp)]
