Description

This is a chimney stack located beside the Red River, believed to date from the mid to late 19th century. It is constructed from uncoursed granite rubble and brick, featuring a tapered cylindrical shape divided into two stages, each with chamfered brick cornices. The chimney stack is situated downstream from the South Crofty tin mine and is likely linked to tin streaming activities at this location. It forms a loose group with another chimney stack located nearby.
