Abstract: |
An historic building assessment was carried out at Tutbury Glassworks for Friel Construction Ltd. The glassworks date to the earliest part of the 19th century and continued in use until 2005. Survival from the earliest period is limited to a single range of workshops and two storage rooms which may represent annealing chambers. The remainder of the structures date to the 20th century. The most significant of these is the remains of the blow-house which dates to the early part of the 20th century and contains an oil-fired furnace and associated chimney-stack. The rest of the structures date to the mid-20th century and represent the expansion of the glassworks during the inter-war and post-war periods, and subsequent replacement of earlier buildings. |
