Low Mill furnace is a blast furnace located in Yorkshire, dating from the eighteenth century. The structure represents an important surviving example of early industrial ironworking infrastructure from the period when Britain's iron production was expanding rapidly. The furnace itself comprises a stone-built stack and associated casting house, typical of the technological and architectural arrangements of mid-eighteenth-century ironworks. As a scheduled monument, Low Mill furnace preserves evidence of the region's significant role in the development of iron manufacture during the early phases of industrialisation.
