Panningridge iron furnace site is a scheduled ancient monument located in Sussex that represents the iron-working heritage of the Weald during the early modern period. The site contains the remains of an iron furnace dating to the sixteenth century, when the Sussex Weald was a major centre of iron production in England. The furnace would have utilised local iron ore and charcoal produced from the surrounding woodland to smelt and cast iron for domestic and military purposes. The monument survives as earthwork remains and buried archaeological deposits that preserve evidence of this important phase of English industrial activity.
