Cyril Hart's Book on The Industrial History of Dean, has a map which locates the Tin Plate Works at the current Lydwood site. This is below the Anchor Inn. He also shows a Forge, and a later rolling mill and part of the tinplate works slighly above this, closer to the Anchor. At the now derelict site opposite to the Chapel, and above the Anchor, he has Russell's Wire Works. The old S & W railway line runs along behind all of the sites.
