I've only just found this site this morning - fantastic - I live on the Upper Redbrook Furness / Foundry site - which I don't think is the one you have posted about. There were two important sites and I think that description fits the former Upper Copper Works on acount of it's close proximity to the Wye.

I see from your past posts you are interested in the Hill family. My wife remembers a Malcolm Hill and he lived virtually next door to where we are in a house then called 'The Glen' (since re-named Stampers Wheel). This house was previously the Forge last opperated by Thomas Burgham - closed C 1880.

I can certainly find out more on the Hill family; in deed a older freind born here is visting us today. - Still working my way round this site so you will know better how to get in touch than I.

Cheers
