This print shows the River Don Work. Lest this should be confusing, it should be clearly stated that this works was generally known as Millsands, admittedly on the River Don, and not the more famous River Don Works, down Brightside Lane, which were built betwwen 1862 and 1864. Here are the older works of this name, we see crucible furnaces, cementation furnaces and forge chimneys. Note the tall structure, quite clearly a test tower for cast-steel bells. |
