Helpful information board can be found here detailing the history of Furnace Pool which was re-modelled in 1987. Originally, the pool was much smaller and was a series of three that may have been a mill pool for a water driven blast furnace at the beginning of the nineteenth century (info from the on-site information plaque). N.B. you can view the pool from here and access the information board. However, access to the pool (from this particular point) is blocked by a fence, so you if you wanted to take a closer look you would need to access it from the roadside entrance.
