The glassworks cone is a Grade II listed industrial structure located in Yorkshire, England, dating to the eighteenth century. The cone represents a significant surviving example of glassmaking infrastructure from the Georgian period, when glass production was an important manufacturing industry in the region. Such cones served as the central feature of glassworks, housing the furnaces necessary for heating and melting glass at the high temperatures required for production. The structure's survival provides material evidence of Yorkshire's industrial heritage and the technological methods employed in early modern glass manufacture.
