Abstract/Summary

Jim Kirby took two pictures at Kilcamb, Strontian in 2011. The first was of The Bathing House, first recorded 1830 (NM 8090 6116) and the second was a folly on the track leading to it (NM 8091 6118). A single piece of iron slag from under a windblown tree root at NM 8097 6121 suggested a bloomery in close proximity, but most of the slag could have been recycled, either at Bonawe, or locally as a flux in smelting lead from old slag.
